beidh

Future of Bí

Level 2

Beidh locates a state or location in the future: Beidh mé anseo amárach. Its negative is ní bheidh and its question is an mbeidh.

How It Works

Beidh locates a state or location in the future: Beidh mé anseo amárach. Its negative is ní bheidh and its question is an mbeidh.

Beidh is the independent future of bí. Negative ní lenites it to bheidh; question an eclipses it to mbeidh. The rest of the state or location phrase can remain the same, so learn the three sentence frames together.
