This document discusses different ways to talk about the future in English: 1) "Going to + infinitive" is used for future plans and predictions when there is evidence. 2) The present continuous ("be + verb-ing") expresses future plans or arrangements. 3) "Will + infinitive" makes predictions without evidence, offers, promises, and decisions made at the moment. 4) "Shall + infinitive" is used in questions with "I" and "we" for offers and suggestions. The document provides example sentences and links for further practice with future forms.
