Questions & Answers about Demà només vull una amanida i arròs.
Why is vull in the present tense even though demà means tomorrow?
Catalan often uses the present tense to talk about the future when the time is already clear from a word like demà.
So Demà només vull una amanida i arròs is perfectly natural.
You could also use the future:
- Demà només voldré una amanida i arròs
But that sounds a bit more marked or formal here. In everyday speech, the present is very common.
What verb is vull, and what person is it?
