FUTURE - REVIEW

Future has two different forms in English: "will" and "be going to." Although the two forms can sometimes be used interchangeably, they often express two very different meanings. These different meanings might seem too abstract at first, but with time and practice, the differences will become clear. Both "will" and "be going to" refer to a specific time in the future.


FORM WILL


[will + verb]

Examples:
You will help him later.  (forma afirmativa)

Will you help him later? (forma interrogativa)

You will not help him later. (forma negativa)


FORM BE GOING TO
[am/is/are + going to + verb]

Examples:
You are going to meet Jane tonight. (forma afirmativa)

Are you going to meet Jane tonight? (forma interrogativa)

You are not going to meet Jane tonight. (forma negativa)
