Future Tense in Arabic:
To form the Arabic future tense simply use: sa or sawfa + (the verb in present tense).
Examples: sa aktubu (I will write), sa adhabu (I will go), or if you want to use sawfa: sawfa aktubu (I will go), sawfa adhabu (I will go). Isn’t that a piece of cake!
There is no difference between sa and sawfa, to make it easy you can choose to use sa most of the time so that you won’t get confused.
