Future of Biti

Level 3

Biti follows the same two orders as other verbs.

How It Works

PersonForm
jabit ću
tibit ćeš
on, onabit će
mibit ćemo
vibit ćete
onibit će

The verb biti is the one you will use most often in the future: Bit će lijepo. Bit ćemo na vrijeme.

The same sentence can start with another word, and then the order flips: Sutra ću biti u Sarajevu. Both are normal. Do not use budem alone for a plain future in careful writing; it belongs to the future II (kad budem stigao), which has its own lesson.

  1. Bit ću kod kuće.

  2. Sutra ću biti u Sarajevu.

    Tomorrow I will be in Sarajevo.

    A time word first: ću biti.

  3. Bit će lijepo vrijeme.

    The weather will be nice.

    Third person: bit će.

  4. Bit ćemo na vrijeme.

Common Mistakes

  • Using budem as a plain future

    Sutra budem kod kuće.
    Sutra ću biti kod kuće.

    The plain future is bit ću or ću biti. You may hear budem that way in some places, but it belongs to future II.
