preferirás

Preferirás is the second person singular form of the Spanish verb preferir in the simple future indicative. It translates to “you will prefer” or “you are going to prefer.” The verb means to choose one option over another or to like something more than something else.

In grammar terms, preferir is conjugated regularly in the future: yo preferiré, tú preferirás, él/ella/usted preferirá, nosotros/as preferiremos, vosotros/as preferiréis, ellos/as/ustedes preferirán. Unlike the present tense, where preferir shows a stem change (e → ie in many forms), the future tense does not involve a vowel change in the stem.

Usage notes: preferirás is used to talk about a future preference or decision. It can appear in statements, questions, or subordinate clauses describing future scenarios. It is common in everyday speech when predicting or planning how someone will choose between options.

Examples:

- Mañana preferirás descansar en casa. (Tomorrow you will prefer to rest at home.)

- Si te ofrecen dos opciones, ¿qué elegirás? ¿Qué opción preferirás: el té o el café? (If you are offered two options, which will you choose? Which option will you prefer: tea or coffee?)

Etymology: preferir comes from Latin praeferre, meaning “to carry before” or “to prefer.” See also: preferir, verbal conjugations, Spanish future tense.
