💡 Grammar Points
Identifying the Future Tense
'Volverás' is the future tense, which is used for actions that definitely will happen later. Notice the accent mark on the last syllable, which is typical for 'tú' future forms.
Future Tense Formation
Unlike the present tense (where 'volver' changes its vowel to 'vuelves'), the future tense takes the entire infinitive ('volver') and adds the ending '-ás' for the 'tú' form. No irregular stem changes here!
❌ Common Pitfalls
Confusing Tenses
Mistake: "¿Cuándo vuelves?"
Correction: This is the present tense, asking 'When are you returning?' or 'When do you return?' If you mean a specific future time, use the future: '¿Cuándo volverás?'
⭐ Usage Tips
Using 'volver a'
You can use 'volverás a + infinitive' to mean 'you will do [something] again.' Example: 'Volverás a comer aquí' (You will eat here again).

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does 'volverás' not have the 'ue' stem change, even though 'vuelvo' does?
The 'e' changing to 'ue' only happens in certain tenses, like the present indicative ('vuelvo'). The simple future tense ('volverás') is built directly on the infinitive 'volver' and doesn't use the stem change, making it easier to remember!
What is the difference between 'volverás' and 'vas a volver'?
Both mean 'you will return.' 'Volverás' (simple future) is more formal or used for predictions about the distant future. 'Vas a volver' (periphrastic future) is more common in spoken Spanish for actions happening very soon or in the near future.
