### The Future Tense of *Essere* and *Avere*

The two most important verbs in Italian, **essere** (to be) and **avere** (to have), are irregular in the *futuro semplice*. They change their stems to **sar-** and **avr-**, but use the standard future endings.

| Pronoun | Future Ending | essere (to be) | avere (to have) |
|---------|---------------|----------------|-----------------|
| io      | -ò            | sar**ò**       | avr**ò**        |
| tu      | -ai           | sar**ai**      | avr**ai**       |
| lui/lei | -à            | sar**à**       | avr**à**        |
| noi     | -emo          | sar**emo**     | avr**emo**      |
| voi     | -ete          | sar**ete**     | avr**ete**      |
| loro    | -anno         | sar**anno**    | avr**anno**     |

Use these verbs to talk about where you will be and what you will have in the future:

{{item:808432}}

To express being successful in Italian, use the verb *avere* with the noun **successo** (*avere successo*).

{{item:808441}}

{{item:808445}}

{{item:808447}}

As you work toward your goals, you will often pair these future achievements with verbs like **sperare** (to hope) and adjectives like **orgoglioso** (proud).
