The prefixed future particle sa is used in combination with the imperfect (present tense) verb to form the future tense. The passive imperfect verb (فعل مضارع) is second person masculine plural and is in the indicative mood (مرفوع). The verb's triliteral root is ghayn lām bā (غ ل ب). The suffix (الواو) is an attached subject pronoun.
