English Simple Future

Learn how to form the simple future tense with “will” and “going to”. We can also use “will” to talk about something in the future. “Will” is used instead of “to be + going + to”

Examples:

I will go to school tomorrow.
It will rain tomorrow.
She will call me later today.
We will talk about next week.

We can use “going to” and “will” interchangeably.

Shall

You can say I shall (= I will) and we shall ( = we will) to indicate plans.

• I shall clean the furniture tomorrow.
• We shall put away the toys.

Shall is used in questions to ask whether the listener(s) thinks the plans are a good idea. Shall is used with we or I, but not with you/they/he/she/it in questions.

• Shall we walk there? It’s a nice day.
• Shall I wash the outside of the windows next?
