- When we speak (generally) - Cuando hablamos
- When we speak (later on) - Cuando hablemos
The use of the mood tense highlights a superstition about referring to something in the future as a fact.
- When we eat together, we speak (generally) - Cuando comemos juntos, hablamos.
- When we eat together, we speak (in the future) - Cuando comamos juntos, hablamos.
We still use hablamos, since we are using the mood tense earlier in the sentence.
Voy - I go or I am going
Vaya is the root of the mood tense
- We see her, when we go (generally) - La vemos, cuando vamos.
- We see her, when we go (in the future) - La vemos, cuando vayamos.

I have a friend, who knows I know some Spanish...Whenever I see him, he just says “Vaya con Dios” as that is the only Spanish he knows
