    He is correct. MASU form (e.g., 行きます) can indicate both present & future, and the context of the sentence decides the tense. We also have ways to say "plan to" or "intend to" for the future but basically, you can use MASU form. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qqqltdevgrOdZLw.html Hope this helps!

    @theRaika3 жыл бұрын

    in the example, "kazoku ni ai ni amerika ni tomodachi wa kaettekimasu" i also become confuse because i I'm seeing everything that comes before the noun "tomodachi" as modifying the noun "tomodachi". And then i see "To meet family in america friend return". Because i'm not good at picking up modying clauses quicky, it always gets me. But based on what i have learned so far, that sentence isn't really modifying tomodachi, since its not a logical clause, meaning it didn't end with a engine like a verb, copulla or adjective or is it?
