verras

Verras is the second-person singular future simple form of the French verb voir, meaning “to see.” The future tense of voir is irregular; the stem becomes verr- in all singular and plural forms, with the standard endings: je verrai, tu verras, il verra, nous verrons, vous verrez, ils verront. Tu verras is the form used with the subject pronoun tu to indicate that the person addressed will see something in the future.

Usage and nuance: The phrase “tu verras” conveys a straightforward prediction or assurance and is common in everyday speech as well as in literature. It can express that something will become clear or happen, often with a sense of reassurance. It contrasts with the near-future construction “tu vas voir,” which uses the aller auxiliary plus an infinitive and tends to feel more informal or immediate. In formal writing, the future simple (tu verras) is standard for describing future events, while the conditional “tu verrais” would express a hypothetical or contingent situation.

Etymology and related forms: Voir derives from Latin videre. Verras is part of an irregular verb family in French; related forms include je verrai, il verra, nous verrons, vous verrez, ils verront. The form should not be confused with the conditional “tu verrais,” which means “you would see.” The spelling and stem are distinctive to the future tense of voir.
