someday
Not yet, but
Someday means at an unspecified time in the future: Someday I'll learn to play piano.
It carries a note of indefiniteness or wishfulness—the speaker doesn't know when, or whether, the thing will happen.
We'll laugh about this someday.
As an adjective, it describes aspirations: a someday dream of owning a home.
