Will
We use will + infinitive to express spontaneous decisions about the future
I’m sorry, I haven’t got time to go to the supermarket, I finished work late
Don’t worry, I’ll do it tomorrow
It’s common to use probably / I think … with these future sentences.
We also use will to make offers and promises
Present continuous
This tense can also be used to describe events or plans in the future that are arranged or fixed.
Common expressions where we use present continuous for future arrangements are:
– tonight, next month (year,week) tomorrow, this weekend etc.
Examples:
My plane is arriving tonight at about 8:30 pm.
My parents are leaving town tomorrow.
Jack isn’t meeting us next weekend.
What are you doing later?
I am playing soccer.
Is your friend coming to eat with us in the afternoon?
Yes, he is.
Practice the use of future indifferent situations:
– will 1
– will 2
– future 2
