Future Perfect Tense
By: Chelsea
“In one month, my blog will have a lot of page views!”
No way! Ali just used the future perfect tense to say what will have happened in a certain time period, in this case, one month! Talking about what will happen in the future is so mysterious and fun! Also, all the cool Hispanic kids use it to talk about how awesome they’ll be by the time they hit age 18. Well, I would think so anyway. Ladies, if you are aspiring to be the most popular girl on campus or boys, if you want to attract all the foxy mama’s, use this verb tense! So you are successful, we will tell you how to create the future perfect. You must use the future form of the verb haber followed by a past participle.
Habre Habremos
Habras Habréis
Habra Habran
Remember your irregulars like escrito, vuelto, discubierto, and resuleto!
Visit soon! You’ll never know what exciting thing we will say next!

The Future Tense
The Future Tense
By: Ali
Ok, so, you can use the Future Tense when you want to talk about something in the future or when you want to talk with uncertainty about time. Also, the Future Tense can be used like the Present Subjunctive. For example, if you wanted to say;
“I will go running with you” or “I wonder what time it is” or “They must be outside”. All of these could be used with the Future Tense.
But, its not that easy. Here’s the catch... you have to add these endings onto the infinitive of the verb. “I will study” would be “Estudiaré”.
I will go running with you. => Correré contigo.
I wonder what time it is. => ¿Que hora será?
They must be outside. => Estarán el aire de libre.

Present Perfect Subjunctive and Present Subjunctive Tenses with Doubt
By: Chelsea
Let’s talk about the present and present perfect subjunctive with doubt. People use this tense to set a mood of doubt, uncertainty, or disbelief either about things that are occurring in the present (present subjunctive) or things that have happened in the past (present perfect subjunctive). Personally, I think the present and present perfect subjunctive is a little corny. Why? It reminds me of Romeo and Juliet. To be more specific, this tense reminds me of the over dramatic Juliet. “I doubt that I can live without my burning hunk of love.” Put a can in it Juliet. Even though Juliet provides a good example of the present subjunctive, I still do not like her. She’s too desperate. Come on now, be an independent woman! Anyways, back to the grammar… If you wanted to use this grammar you would need to know how to form it, so I’ll let you in on the secret.
To form the present and present perfect subjunctive you need to use the subjunctive conjugation of the verb haber with a past participle.
“I don’t think that he had liked Juliet.” => “No creo que haya querido Juliet.”
