Simple Future Tense
Simple 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.
From Will :
Formula :
(+) S + Will + Verb 1 + Object + adverb
(-) S + Will + not + Verb 1 + Object +adverb
(?) Will + S + Verb 1 + Object + adverb ?
From Be Going To
Formula :
(+) S + Be (is, are, am) + going to + Verb 1 +
Object + adverb
(-) S + Be (is, are, am) + going to + not + Verb 1
+ Object +adverb
(?) Be (is, are, am) + S + going to + Verb 1 +
Object + adverb ?
USE 1 :
"Will" to Express a Voluntary Action
"Will" often suggests that a speaker will do something
voluntarily. A voluntary action is one the speaker
offers to do for someone else. Often, we use "will" to
respond to someone else's complaint or request for
help. We also use "will" when we request that someone
help us or volunteer to do something for us. Similiarly,
we use "will not" or "won't" when we refuse to
voluntarily do something.
I will send you the information when I get it.
I will translate the email, so Mr. Smith can read it.
Will you help me move this heavy table?
Will you make dinner?
I will not do your homework for you.
I won't do all the housework myself!
A: I'm really hungry.
B: I'll make some sandwiches.
A: I'm so tired. I'm about to fall asleep.
B: I'll get you some coffee.
A: The phone is ringing.
B: I'll get it.
USE 2 :
"Will" to Express a Promise
"Will" is usually used in promises.
Examples:
 I will call you when I arrive.
 If I am elected President of the United States, I will
make sure everyone has access to inexpensive health
insurance.
 I promise I will not tell him about the surprise party.
 Don't worry, I'll be careful.
 I won't tell anyone your secret.
USE 3 :
"Be going to" to Express a Plan
"Be going to" expresses that something is a plan. It expresses the idea that a
person intend`s to do something in the future. It does not matter whether the
plan is realistic or not.
Examples:
 He is going to spend his vacation in Hawaii.
 She is not going to spend her vacation in Hawaii.
 A: When are we going to meet each other tonight?
B: We are going to meet at 6 PM.
 I'm going to be an actor when I grow up.
 Michelle is going to begin medical school next year.
 They are going to drive all the way to Alaska.
 Who are you going to invite to the party?
 A: Who is going to make John's birthday cake?
B: Sue is going to make John's birthday cake.
USE 4 :
"Will" or "Be Going to" to Express a Prediction
Both "will" and "be going to" can express the idea of a general
prediction about the future. Predictions are guesses about what
might happen in the future. In "prediction" sentences, the
subject usually has little control over the future and therefore
USES 1-3 do not apply. In the following examples, there is no
difference in meaning.
 The year 2015 will be a very interesting year.
 The year 2015 is going to be a very interesting year.
 John Smith will be the next President.
 John Smith is going to be the next President.
 The movie "Zenith" will win several Academy Awards.
 The movie "Zenith" is going to win several Academy
Awards.
IMPORTANT !
In the Simple Future, it is not always clear which USE the speaker has in mind.
Often, there is more than one way to interpret a sentence's meaning.
No Future in Time Clauses
Like all future forms, the Simple Future cannot be used in clauses
beginning with time expressions such as: when, while, before, after, by
the time, as soon as, if, unless, etc. Instead of Simple Future, Simple
Present is used.
Examples:
 When you will arrive tonight, we will go out for dinner. Not Correct
 When you arrive tonight, we will go out for dinner. Correct
The examples below show the placement for grammar
adverbs such as: always, only, never, ever, still, just, etc.
Examples:
 You will never help him.
 Will you ever help him?
 You are never going to meet Jane.
 Are you ever going to meet Jane?
Adverb of time that use in Future
Tense :
 Tomorrow
 In a few days
 In two weeks time
 In a few minute
 Later
 Next
 Tonight
Examples:
John will finish the work at 5:00 PM. ACTIVE
The work will be finished by John at 5:00 PM. PASSIVE
Sally is going to make a beautiful dinner tonight. ACTIVE
A beautiful dinner is going to be made by Sally tonight. PASSIVE
