Questions & Answers about Serviser će proveriti laptop.
What does će mean here?
Će is the auxiliary used to form the future tense in Serbian. In this sentence, it shows that the action will happen in the future.
So:
- serviser = the technician / repair person
- će proveriti = will check
- laptop = the laptop
A useful pattern is:
- ja ću
- ti ćeš
- on/ona/ono će
- mi ćemo
- vi ćete
- oni/one/ona će
So Serviser će proveriti laptop means the subject is he or the technician, and će marks the future.
Why is će written separately from proveriti?
In standard Serbian, the future can be formed with the auxiliary hteti in its short form plus the infinitive.
That is what you see here:
- će
- proveriti
So this is a normal future construction:
- Serviser će proveriti laptop.
You may also see forms where the auxiliary attaches to the verb, especially when the infinitive loses its final -i:
- Proveriće laptop.
Both are future tense forms. In your sentence, the separate version is used because the subject serviser comes first:
- Serviser će proveriti laptop.
Why is the verb proveriti and not proverava or proveravaće?
