jövőbeli
Etwas, das in der Zeit nach jetzt passieren wird oder gelten soll.
The German word "künftig" is an adjective and adverb meaning "future" or "from now on". It stems from the verb "kaufen" (no, in this case it is related to "kommen" = to come) — actually, "künftig" is derived from the strong adjective form related to "künftig" meaning "coming" or "forthcoming".
It is used to refer to something that will happen or apply in the future.
Similar words:
- zukünftig (future)

Differences:
- künftig and zukünftig are often interchangeable, but zukünftig can sound a bit more formal or abstract.
- kommend usually refers to events that are coming up very soon or immediate future.
- in Zukunft is a phrase rather than an adjective or adverb.
