Presentation transcript:

1.Plans, decisions, and intentions  will and going to 2.Facts and predictions  will and going to 3. Arrangements  present continuous

Plans, decisions and intentions (1) WILL: to express a decision, intention or offer made at the moment of speaking - I’ll have the steak, please. - I’ll see you tomorrow, bye! - There’s someone at the door! – OK, I’ll open it.

Plans, decisions, and intentions (2) GOING TO: to express a future plan, decision or intention made before the moment of speaking -When I grow up, I’m going to be a doctor. -Jane and Peter are going to get married after they graduate. -We’re going to paint this room blue.

Facts and predictions (1) WILL: to express a future fact or prediction = “pure future” or “future simple” -We’ll be away for two weeks. -Our love will last forever. -These flowers won’t grow under the tree. It’s too dark.

Facts and predictions (2) Note: Will for prediction can be based more on an opinion than a fact. -I don’t think Laura will do very well in her exam. She doesn’t do any work. -I am convinced that inflation will fall to three per cent next year.

Facts and predictions (3) GOING TO: to express a prediction, especially when it is based on a present fact. There is evidence that something is certain to happen. -She’s going to have a baby. -Our team is going to win the match. -It isn’t going to rain today, there aren’t any clouds in the sky.

Facts and predictions (4) Sometimes there is hardly any difference between WILL and GOING TO. Example: This government will / is going to ruin this country with its stupid economic politics.

Arrangements (1) PRESENT CONTINUOUS: to express a future arrangement between people -We’re going out with Jack and Jill tonight. -I’m having my hair cut tomorrow. -What are we having for lunch?

Arrangements (2) Think of the things you put in your diary. -I’m meeting Peter tonight. -The Taylors are coming for dinner. -I’m seeing the doctor in the morning.

Arrangements (3) Sometimes there is hardly any difference between an agreed arrangement (present continuous) and an intention (going to). Example: We’re going to get / We’re getting married in spring.
