One day I'll give the language a name...

There isn't a general future tense. You could use "tomorrow", "next year", etc.
for some things, but would use present for this.

tt = !
hh = C
nn = J

Of course, the speakers of the language would find this hilarious. It's
certainly not something they would write. If you were foolish enough to try to
take it to them, they'd laugh uproariously (except for the ones holding blades
at your throat) and then, in what they'd consider an amusing twist, they'd boil
you alive.
