You will see the truth.

Every Esperanto verb takes the same three endings, with no exceptions to memorise: (see), (saw), (will see), plus (would see) and (look, see to it). Its object always carries -n, and so does any adjective in front of that object: . Keep it apart from , which is to look at on purpose; is what simply reaches your eyes. The same root gives (sight) and the everyday goodbye .
