Future plans with present continuous

Just like in English, you can use the present continuous tense (-yor) to talk about fixed plans in the near future. Simply pair a present continuous verb with a future time word.

Common future time expressions include yarın (tomorrow), gelecek hafta (next week), and sonra (later).

She is coming tomorrow.
O yarın geliyor.
We are meeting at the park tomorrow evening.
Yarın akşam parkta buluşuyoruz.
We are staying at the hotel next week.
Gelecek hafta otelde kalıyoruz.

To say something is happening in a certain number of days, use sonra after the timeframe (for example, üç gün sonra means "in three days").

The airplane is taking off in three days.
Uçak üç gün sonra kalkıyor.

Negatives and Questions

The same pattern applies to negatives and questions about future plans. Just use the negative or question form of the present continuous.

I am not working next week.
Gelecek hafta çalışmıyorum.
Where are we meeting tomorrow morning?
Yarın sabah nerede buluşuyoruz?
