This pattern can be used to make future tense sentences.
The basic conjugation rules are:
1. Verb stems ending with a vowel (보다,가다,자다) are followed by ㄹ 거예요
2.Verb stems ending with consonant (먹다,찿다,밭다) are followed by 을 거예요
3.Verb stems already ending with ㄹ at the end (놀다,멀다,살다) are followed just by 거예요
가다 ➡ 갈 거예요
하다 ➡ 할 거예요
입다 ➡ 입을 거예요
팔다 ➡ 팔 거예요
When a verb is changed into this form, it takes the meaning of "to be going to" do something or "will" do something. But as you will find out when you hear more Koreab spoken between native speakers, the present tense can also serve to express the future, when the context is very clear.
For example, "Im going to go tomorrow" is 내일 갈 거예요,in the future tense. But even if you say 내일 가요,which is in the present tense, it still makes perfect sense, depending on the situation.
The final note is that when the subject in the sentence is the third person, the -ㄹ/을 거예요 can also represent the speaker's conjecture.
Examples:
뭐 팔 거예요?
What are tou going to sell?
티셔츠 입을 거예요
I'm going to wear T-shirt
오늘 숙제를 끝낼 거예요
I will finish homework today
누구 만날 거예요?
Who are you going to meet?
밤에 비가 올 거예요
(I guess) It will rain in the evening
