💡 Grammar Points

The Future Tense

This tense is used for actions that will definitely happen later. It’s a single word in Spanish, unlike the 'will + verb' structure in English.

Irregular Future Stem

The base verb salir (to leave) is irregular in the future tense. Instead of using the full infinitive (salir) plus the endings, you use the shorter stem saldr-.

❌ Common Pitfalls

Using 'Ir a Salir'

Mistake: "Voy a saliré"

Correction: Voy a salir. (Use the simple future *saldré* for quick promises, or the 'ir a' construction, but don't mix them.)

⭐ Usage Tips

Expressing Future Probability

In advanced Spanish, saldré can sometimes mean 'I wonder if I am leaving' or 'I probably will leave,' especially when speculating about the present or near future.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 'saldré' the same as 'voy a salir'?

They both mean 'I will leave,' but 'voy a salir' (I am going to leave) is generally used for very immediate future plans, while 'saldré' (I will leave) is the standard simple future tense, used for plans further out or for making promises.

How do I know when to use the irregular stem 'saldr-'?

The stem *saldr-* is only used for two tenses: the simple future (like *saldré*) and the conditional (like *saldría*). For all other major tenses, like the present or preterite, you use the regular stem *sal-*.
