​MAKING FUTURE PLANS AND PREDICTION

One of the most popular among English learners is using the modal verb ‘will’.

​

I’ll see you tomorrow.

We’ll talk about this next week.

I don’t think she’ll be happy about your news, let's have some meeting to discuss about this.

​Actually, "WILL" cannot be used in all contexts for future reference

​HOW ARE THEY DIFFERENT?

​But what is the difference? Are they all the same?

No. There is a difference in these 3 future tenses and the situations we use them for.

​WILL

​Use WILL for spontaneous decisions and plans made at the time of speaking.

I think I‘ll have sushi for lunch.

It’s getting late. I think I‘ll go home.

​

Use WILL to express yourself when thinking or considering plans.

I think I‘ll stay home tonight.

I don’t think I will come with you.

I will probably be really busy tomorrow.

​WILL

Use WILL for predictions; when we guess or believe something about the future.

I think I‘ll probably be really busy on the weekend.

I probably won’t be available tomorrow night.

​I think it will rain later so take an umbrella with you (based on weather forecast)

​

Use WILL to make an offer of help.

Don’t worry. I’ll help you move house.

​WILL

Use WILL to show that you’re happy and willing to do something

I’ll pay for drinks tonight.

​

Use WILL to make promises.

I will love you forever.

​

Use WILL to show your determination to do something

A: You’re not going to get that promotion.

B: Yes I will!

BE GOING TO

Use BE GOING TO to talk about plans made before the time of speaking.

These are plans you have already arranged and maybe scheduled with other people.

​

We’re going to have lunch on Sunday.

I’m going to work on my project this weekend.

They‘re going to meet us at the airport.

BE GOING TO

Use BE GOING TO when we have evidence or a sign that something is going to happen.

We can be sure that it is likely to happen. We can see that it is going to happen.

​

Oh look out! She‘s going to fall!

It looks like it‘s going to rain. (the sky is dark and cloudy: evidence)

He‘s going to win

BE + VERB ING (Present Continuous)

Use BE + VERB ING to talk about personal plans and social arrangements in the near future.

​

What are you doing tonight?

I’m seeing a movie with a friend.

Do you want to (wanna) catch up Monday night?

No, sorry. I’m working.

What are you doing Saturday night?
