Chapter 5: Future Tense

• The future tense is indicated by the addition of "bi" after the stem and before the endings in the 1st and 2nd Conjugations.
  
  
  • E.g. laudä-bi-t: 3rd singular
    
    
• The future tense is translated with "shall" in the 1st person sing & plur and "will" in the 2nd and 3rd person sing and plur. [For emphasis, do will for the 1st person and shall for the 2nd & 3rd].This distinction isn't observed in daily English usage anymore - but old folks like professors like it when they hear it.
