students that going to is
often reduced to gonna.
Remind them that while the
reduced form is very
common in speaking, it’s
not often used in writing
(except in casual writing
such as a text message to
a friend). Most students
think it’s fun to practice
reduced forms, so
encourage them to
use gonna in speech.
