To conjugate -are and -ere verbs verbs in the future tense, simply add the following suffixes:
-erò - first-person singular
-erai - second-person singular
-erà - third-person singular
-eremo - first-person plural
-erete - second-person plural
-eranno - third-person plural
For -ire verbs are similar, but change the first "er" to stay "ire" like the infinitive.

Parlerai con lui?
You will talk with him?
