Vendránfamilias

Future tense of venir

"Vendrán" is the third‑person plural future form of the verb *venir* (to come). It expresses an action that will happen later.

2

Subject‑verb agreement

The verb must agree in number with the subject. Here the subject is the plural noun *familias*, so the verb takes the plural ending –án.

Plural feminine noun

    The noun should be plural to match the meaning; also the article is missing.

    Same agreement error – the plural verb needs a plural noun.
