Abstract

In this paper, I will consider the (in)compatibility of the Spanish future form and habitual adverbs. In Spanish, the combination of the future form and habitual adverbs is restricted. To describe this restriction is the main purpose of this paper. According to the analysis based on the Google Books Corpus and the experiment, the future form + habitual adverbs construction is accepted in relative clauses, conditional constructions or subclauses of epistemic verbs. The construction can be acceptable if some phrases which express time or purpose appear with it.
