comprarás

comprarás is the second person singular form of the Spanish verb comprar in the simple future tense. It means “you will buy” and is used when the subject is informal you (tú). Like other -ar verbs, comprar shows regular future endings, so comprarás appears with the ending for tú: -ás. The complete set of future forms for this verb is compraré, comprarás, comprará, compraremos, compraréis, comprarán.

Phonetics and spelling: comprarás is pronounced approximately kôm-pra-RÁS, with the accent on the last syllable to indicate the stressed final syllable, as required by Spanish rules for words ending in s. The accent also helps distinguish it from other tenses of the same verb without changing the spelling.

Usage: comprarás is used to indicate a future action performed by the person addressed as tú. The subject pronoun tú is often omitted in Spanish when the verb form makes the subject clear. Examples include: Mañana comprarás pan. (Tomorrow you will buy bread.) Si tienes dinero, comprarás el libro. (If you have money, you will buy the book.) In contrast, the formal second person singular, usted, uses comprará in the same tense, while vosotros/vosotras uses compraréis for the plural informal form.

Related forms: as a regular -ar verb, comprar participates in all its conjugations in other tenses and moods, such as compraré (I will buy), compré (I bought), compraba (I was buying), and compraría (I would buy). Understanding comprarás helps in recognizing regular future forms across Spanish verbs.
