Future plans: 'zu' + infinitive, 'werden' + infinitive

Regularly practise reading aloud to improve your fluency and knowledge of sound-symbol correspondences. We can use the present tense with a future time phrase to refer to future plans, e.g., 'Ich spiele morgen Tennis.' We can form the future tense in German by using the present tense of 'werden' plus an infinitive. In two-verb structures, the second verb is in the infinitive at the end of the sentence, preceded by a comma and 'zu'. There is no 'zu' in two-verb structures using 'werden' or modal verbs (e.g., 'wollen', 'sollen').
