Marathi, one of the major languages spoken in India, has a unique and intricate grammar system. Among the many aspects of Marathi grammar, lies the Future Progressive tense. This tense is used to describe ongoing events that will occur in the future. In this article, we will delve deep into the world of Marathi grammar, specifically focusing on the future progressive tense, its rules, and practical examples.
To form the future progressive tense in Marathi grammar, we combine the future tense form of “to be” (असणे) with the continuous form of the main verb. This results in a compound verb form that suggests the action will be ongoing in the future.
To create the continuous form of the main verb, we add the suffix “त” or “णा” to the verb stem. The choice of the suffix depends on the verb category, with each category having specific rules.
Group I: Verbs ending in “णे”
In this group, the verb stem ends in “णे.” To form the continuous form, replace “णे” with “णा.”
Example: काम करणे (to work)
Continuous form: काम करणा
Group II: Verbs ending in “वे” or “ईवे”
For verbs in this category, remove “वे” or “ईवे” from the verb stem and add “त.”
Example: ओढवणे (to embrace)
Continuous form: ओढवत
With the continuous form of the main verb defined, the next step is to add the future tense form of “to be” (असणे). For this, conjugate “असणे” according to the subject’s gender and number.
Examples:
– Singular masculine subject: असेल
– Plural masculine subject: असतील
– Singular feminine subject: असेल
– Plural feminine subject: असतील
Now, combine the continuous form of the main verb with the appropriate conjugation of “असणे.”
Example: काम करणा + असेल = काम करणार असेल (he/she will be working)
1. ते एका तासाने घरी पोचणार असतील. (Te eka tāsāne gharī pochaṇār asatīl.)
Translation: They will be reaching home in an hour.
2. आम्ही नवीन ग्रंथालय बांधत असतो. (Āmhī navīn granthālaya bāndhat asatō.)
Translation: We will be building a new library.
3. तुम्ही मालिका बघत असतात का? (Tumhī mālikā baghat asatāt ka?)
Translation: Will you be watching the series?
