Korean lessons: Lesson 11
Future 이다 - Using 되다
So? How do you conjugate 이다 into the future (to say "I will be ______)?
These sound very awkward in Korean:
저는 선생님이겠다
저는 선생님일 것이다
Instead, you must use another verb, 되다, which I think is one of the most complicated words in Korean because it has so many meanings. One meaning of 되다 is 'become' and can be used when talking about something you will become in the future. 되다 usually acts as an adjective. The only reason that is important is because it tells you that you need to use 이/가 instead of 을/를:
저는 곧 선생님이 될 것입니다 = I will be a teacher soon
나는 미래에 의사가 될 거야 = I will be a doctor in the future
되다 can, of course, be used in the past or present as well. Notice the difference between these two:
저는 선생님이었어요 = I was a teacher
저는 선생님이 되었어요 = I became a teacher----
