vorrò

Vorrò is the first-person singular form of the Italian verb volere in the futuro semplice, the simple future tense. It translates to “I will want” or “I shall want” and is used to express a future desire, intention, or determination. Volere is irregular in the future, and its full set of forms is Io vorrò, tu vorrai, lui/lei vorrà, noi vorremo, voi vorrete, loro vorranno. The form vorrò is produced from the root vor- with the standard future endings, and the spelling features a doubled consonant in the first person singular.

In usage, vorrò denotes a future state or action that the speaker intends to pursue or desires to have. It appears in more formal or literary contexts and in expressions of resolve, plans, or promises about the future. In everyday speech, speakers more commonly use present or more polite constructions (such as vorrei) to convey desire or intention.

Compared with related forms, voglio expresses present desire (I want), vorrei conveys a polite or hypothetical wish (I would like), and volevo or volevo was used for past or imperfect contexts. The future perfect of volere, avrò voluto, would indicate that the desire would have occurred by a certain future moment, though such constructions are relatively rare in ordinary conversation.

Etymologically, vorrò derives from Latin velle, the verb meaning to wish or to want, and it constitutes a standard example of the Italian verb volere’s irregular conjugation in the futuro semplice.
