Simple future, function
The simple future refers to a time later than now, and expresses facts or
certainty. In this case there is no 'attitude'.
The simple future is used:
a. to predict a future event: It will rain tomorrow.
b. (with I/we) to express a spontaneous decision: I'll pay for the tickets by
credit card.
c. to express willingness: I'll do the washing-up. He'll carry your bag for you.
d. (in the negative form) to express unwillingness: The baby won't eat his
soup. I won't leave until I've seen the manager!
e. (with I in the interrogative form) to make an offer: Shall I open the
window?
f. (with we in the interrogative form) to make a suggestion: Shall we go to
the cinema tonight?
g. (with I in the interrogative form) to ask for advice or instructions: What
shall I tell the boss about this money?
h. (with you) to give orders: You will do exactly as I say.
i. (with you) to give an invitation: Will you come to the dance with me?
Will you marry me?
NOTE: In modern English will is preferred to shall.
Shall is mainly used with I and we to make an offer or suggestion.
With the other persons (you, he, she, they) shall is only used in literary or
poetic situations, e.g. "With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes, She shall have music wherever she goes."
Future with Going to
1. Future with Going to - form
'to be' + going to + the infinitive of the main verb:
Subject 'to be' going to infinitive
She is going to leave
2. Future with Going to - function
The use of 'going to' to refer to future events suggests a very strong
association with the present. The time is not important - it is later than now, but the attitude is that the event depends on a present situation, that we know about. So it is used:
a) to refer to our plans and intentions:
We're going to move to London next year. (= the plan is in our minds now.)
Is Freddy going to buy a new car soon?
Are John and Pam going to visit Milan when they are in Italy?
I think Nigel and Mary are going to have a party next week.
b) to make predictions based on present evidence:
Look at those clouds - it's going to pour with rain! (= It's clear from what I
can see now.)
There's going to be a terrible accident!
He's going to be a brilliant politician.
I'm going to have terrible indigestion.
NOTE: It is unusual to say 'I'm going to go to...'
Instead, we use 'going to' + a place or event:
Examples:
We are going to the beach tomorrow.
She is going to the ballet tonight.
Note: In everyday speech, 'going to' is often shortened to 'gonna', ‘want to’ – to ‘wanna’ and ‘get to’ – to ‘gotta’ especially in American English.
