0 it can be both, according to a context 02br 00- 'future' as a tense is used to express actions that will occur in a future time 02br 00eg, I will go to the library tomorrow. 02br 00clear enough, you can see the future tense through " will go" 02br 00- 'future' as a definition of the word refers to a time that is to come (later), by opposition with the present time 02br 00- grammaticaly, and I think that's what you mean in your question, 'future' is called 'a tense' 02br 02br 00hope that's clear enough!! 0-
