🇵🇹 Futuro do indicativo or ir + infinitivo —> which one do Portuguese people actually use?
You've probably learned both ways to talk about the future in Portuguese:
📌 Amanhã viajarei para Lisboa.
📌 Amanhã vou viajar para Lisboa.
They're both "correct" but only one of them is what you'll actually hear in everyday conversation. And it gets even more interesting once you bring pronominal verbs (sentar-se, lembrar-se...) into the mix, one of these options can end up sounding like you're reciting Shakespeare
I break it all down in this week's members-only lesson on YouTube.
