GRAMMAR
The Focus of This Lesson Is on the Futuro Semplice Tense of Third Conjugation -ire
Verbs.
Seguir ancora i tuoi consigli.
"I'll follow your advice again."
In order to form the futuro semplice of third conjugation -ire regular verbs, we need to follow
the same procedure we employ for second conjugation verbs. Therefore, we need to drop the
final -e of the infinitive form and add the appropriate endings -, -ai, -, -emo, -ete, and -anno.
For Example:
seguire ("to follow")
Italian
"English"
Io seguir-
Tu seguir-ai
Lui/lei seguir-

Certain -ire irregular verbs change the stem when conjugated at futuro semplice:
For Example:
venire ("to come")
Italian
"English"
Io verr-
Tu verr-ai
Lui/lei verr-
Noi verr-emo
