FUTURE SIMPLE WILL
VS
GOING TO
TEACHER: JAVIER PARDO Y.

THE SIMPLE FUTURE
 The forms of the simple future:
 The simple future is formed as follows:
 Will = 'll
will / 'll + verb

 The affirmative form of the simple future:
 Examples:
 I think I'll buy a new computer.
 I will open the door. Someone is ringing the
bell.
I, you, he, she, it, we, they will / ''ll go.

 The interrogative form of the simple future:
 Examples:
 Will you buy a computer?
 Will you go to the party?
Will I, you, he, she, it, we, they go?

 The negative form of the simple future:
 Will not = won't
 Examples:
 I will not stay at home if I finish the homework.
 I won't visit Big Ben if I go to London.
I, you, he, she, it, we, they
will not
go.
won't

 The use of the simple future:
 We use the simple future for instant decisions.
Example: "I've left the door open; I'll close it."

 We use the simple future , when we predict a
future situation:
Example:
 "She'll pass the exam. She's hardworking“
 We use the simple future with: "I (don't) think...",
"I expect...", "I'm sure...", "I wonder...", "probably".
 Example:
 "It will probably rain tonight" ,
"I wonder what will happen?

 We use the simple future in conditional
sentences type one. (
More on conditional sentences here):
Example:
 "If I have enough time, I'll watch the film."

 Things to remember:
 1. We don't use the simple future to say what
somebody has already decided or arranged to do in
the future. We use instead either the present
continuous or "going to + verb" (Future plan):
 Ann is traveling to New York next week. (NOT,
"Ann will travel ")
 Are you going to watch television? (NOT "will you
watch").

2. You can use shall instead of will for I and we:
 I shall play football.(Or, I will play ...)
 We shall play football. (Or, we will play ...)
3. 'll is the short form of will. You can say either:
 I will go, or
 I 'll go.

4. Won't is the short form of will not. You can say
either:
 I will not go, or
 I won't go.
