Frequently Asked Questions

Why does 'querrá' have two 'r's?

The double 'r' is part of the irregular future stem 'querr-'. The original infinitive 'querer' merges with the future ending, and the 'e' is dropped to create the smoother, contracted sound necessary for the future tense.

How is 'querrá' different from 'querría'?

'Querrá' means 'he/she/you will want' (a definite future prediction). 'Querría' means 'he/she/you would want' (a conditional wish or a polite request in the present).
