obtendré

Obtendré is the first-person singular form of the Spanish verb obtener in the future tense, often glossed as "I will obtain." It is used to indicate a future action in which the speaker expects to gain or acquire something, such as information, a certificate, or a benefit.

Conjugation and form notes: Obtener belongs to the -er class of verbs with some irregularities in its present tense, but in the future tense the forms follow the standard endings for -er verbs: yo obtendré, tú obtendrás, él obtendrá, nosotros obtendremos, vosotros obtendréis, ellos obtendrán. The yo form carries the acute accent on the final syllable, signaling the future.

Etymology and related forms: Obtener comes from the Latin obtinēre, formed from ob- (toward, against) and tenēre (to hold). Related forms include the infinitive obtener, the present tense obtained as obtengo (I obtain), the past participle obtenido, and the present participle obteniendo. The verb is common across Spanish-speaking regions and is often preferred over synonyms like conseguir when emphasizing the act of acquiring something.

Usage and nuance: Obtendré is used in statements about future acquisition, goals, or promised outcomes. It can appear in formal or informal registers. Depending on context, other verbs such as conseguir or lograr may be used to convey similar meanings, sometimes with subtle nuance about ease or effort required. Examples: Obtendré mi licencia tras completar el curso; Si trabajas duro, obtendrás buenos resultados.
