Ways of Expressing the Future Tense I. The Future Indefinite Tense It is used to express an action that will happen in the future. This time can express both a single and repeated action in the future: • I'll go to the country on Sunday. - I'm going out of town on Sunday. •They will have English lessons once a week. - They will have English lessons language once a week. 1. Forecast about the future event based on what we think. Perhaps John will join us. 2. A momentary solution. It's hot here. I'll open the window. 3. Promises, threats, help. I promise I will help you. II. to be going to 1) Another way of expressing the future is the construction to be going to - "going to do something": • I'm going to see the doctor this afternoon. - I'm going (going to go) to the doctor this afternoon. How long are you going to stay in London? - How long will you stay (are you going to stay) in London? 2) To be going to expresses a future intention, plan or decision: • We're going to get married in June. - We are going to get married in June. • When I grow up, I'm going to be a doctor. - When I grow up, I will become a doctor. The verb will can also express intent. The difference between will and to be going to for the expression of intention is that the decision to implement the intention in sentences with to be going to is deliberate until the moment of speech, compare: • I know. I'm going to buy some. - I know. I'm going to buy it. 3) To be going to is used to predict a future event, which follows from the obvious • * Look at those clouds. It's going to rain. - Look at these clouds. It's going to rain soon. Watch out! Those boxes are going to fall over! - Careful! Those boxes are about to fall. III. The Present Indefinite Tense Used: 1) schedule, program, plan: • Your plane leaves in an hour's time. - Your plane departs in an hour. IV.
