Lesson 14: The Future !! Oct 13th, 2005

On this show we briefly talked about our weekend before discussing the future tenses and some of the differences between ‘will’ and ‘going to’.

Point 1: they can be used in the same situation many times, so beginners should not worry about mistakes with them.
Point 2: If a future situation is connected to the present, use ‘going to’. If there is no connection to the present, use ‘will’.
Point 3: When talking about plans, intentions or decisions, use ‘will’ if you make the decision as you speak. Use ‘going to’ if you have already made the decision.

Example: A: Could you help me clean? B: Sure, I’ll wash the dishes.
A: Could you help me clean? B: Sorry, but I’m going to meet my
friend now.

“will/going” to comparison

Here is some other vocabulary that we used:

Spur of the moment: deciding or doing something suddenly (without necessarily thinking about it).
