3. One of the most common ways to talk about
the future is with ‘will’, for example: I will call you
tonight.
We often call this the "future simple tense",
but technically there are no future tenses in
English. In this construction, the word ‘will’ is a
modal auxiliary verb.
Here are the three main ways that we use
‘will’ to talk about the future.
4. 1. NO PLAN
We use will when there is no prior plan or
decision to do something before we speak. We
make the decision at the time of speaking. Look
at these examples:
1. Hold on. I'll get a pen.
2. We will see what we can do to help you.
3. Maybe we'll stay in and watch television
tonight.
5. In these examples, we had ‘no firm plan
before speaking’. The decision was made ‘at the
time of speaking’.
We often use ‘will’ with the verb think:
1. I think I'll go to the gym tomorrow.
2. I think I'll have a holiday next year.
3. I don't think I'll buy that car.
6. 2. Prediction
We often use ‘will’ to make a prediction
about the future. Again, there is no firm plan.
We are saying what we ‘think’ will happen. Here
are some examples:
1. It will rain tomorrow.
2. Who do you think will get the job?
7. 3. Be
The verb ‘be’ is an exception with ‘will’.
Even when we have a very firm plan, and we are
not speaking spontaneously, we can use ‘will’
with ‘be’. Look at these examples:
1. I ‘will be’ in London tomorrow.
2. There ‘will be’ 50 people at the party.
3. The meeting ‘will be’ at 9.30 am.
8. “Going to” Intention
We use the special ‘going to’ construction when
we have the intention to do something ‘before
we speak.’ We have already ‘made a decision
before speaking.’ Look at these examples:
•I have won $1,000. I am ‘going to buy’ a new
TV.
•We're not ‘going to see’ my mother tomorrow.
•When are you ‘going to go’ on holiday?
9. In these examples, we had ‘an intention or plan
before speaking.’ The decision was made before
we spoke.
Prediction
We often use ‘going to’ to make a prediction
about the future. Our prediction is based on
‘evidence’. We are saying what seems sure to
happen. Here are some examples:
10. 1. The sky is very black. It is going to snow.
2. It's 8.30! You're ‘going to miss’ the train!
3. I crashed the company car. My boss isn't
‘going to be’ very happy!
In these examples, the present situation
(black sky/the time/damaged car) gives us a
good idea of what is going to happen.
11. NOTE :
• We use ‘will’ for prediction when we have no
real evidence: "It will rain tomorrow." (It's my
feeling but I can't be sure.)
• We use ‘going to’ for prediction when there is
some real evidence: "It's going to rain." (There's
a big, black cloud in the sky and if it doesn't rain
I'll be very surprised.)
12. “Be goint to” with prior plan. But
“Will” without plan or willness.
14. What is the defferent thing from like and
would like?? Ofcourse they are different,. ‘Like’ the
meaning is suka, while ‘Would Like’ the meaning is
mau. Exemple :
1. I like eating hamburger
Saya suka makan hamburger
2. I would like to eat hamburger
This is not saya suka makan hamburger but saya
mau makan hamburger
In interrogative sentence has a meaning would
like to offer
15. Examples :
Would you like to drink?
Maukah kamu minum?
Would you like a cup of coffee?
Maukah kamu secangkir kopi?
16. Note :
Would like usually abbreviated
1. 'd like
2. I'd like ....
3. We'd like....
19. One way to express the "preference" (Lebih Suka) is to
use the phrase WOULD RATHER. Would rather directly followed
by the base form of the verb (verb without to).
Examples :
1. She would rather stay at home (She'd rather stay at home.)
2. I would rather learn it online. (I'd rather learn it online.)
We would rather drink coffee without sugar. (We'd rather.....)
Look at the examples in the following sentences in
which we compare two measures using WOULD
RATHER...........THAN.............
20. Can be directly followed by a sentence in the form
of simple past tense or past perfect was.
EXAMPLES :
1. I'd rather you stayed with us (Saya lebih suka Anda
tinggal bersama kami)
2. I'd rather you had stayed with us. (Saya lebih suka
Anda tinggal bersama kami. Kegiatan "stay" sudah
terjadi.)
3. We'd rather we didn't go to Bali for our next vacation.
23. Congratulations are often said when someone
finds a good thing or experience happiness. Not only
in everyday life, the conversation also has a term in
the English language that is Congratulations.
Congratulation speech or expression is given to people
who are getting or having something (got happiness).
it is not limited to the position, just goods, but also
including when someone is celebrating something.
24. The Exemple :
· Congratulations on passing your exam! (Selamat atas
kelulusan Anda)
· Happy Ied day! (Selamat Idul Fitri)
· Happy feast day ! (Selamat Hari Ramadhan)
· Merry Christmas! (Selamat Natal)
· Congratulations to you! (Saya ucapkan selamat
kepada Anda)
25. The Example Dialogue:
A: Congratulations !
B: What for?
A : For your graduation. I met your parents at the
market, and they told me about it. It's so happy for
you. I hope you will become successful architect.
A: Thank you very much.
26. The Example Dialogue:
A: Congratulations, I heard that you are getting a job
promotion and will be placed in Bandung. Is that true?
B : Yes, it is true. I am very happy and can't wait to
move to New York
A: You are a very lucky person. I am sure you will be
successful there.
