Hi there. My name is Ronnie and I'm going to teach you English today we're going
to talk about something that everyone loves to talk about right now
The future right now the way the world is the future is not looking too bright
Is it
Never mind all that it doesn't matter it will come about I'm sure
And so we're going to talk about the future tense and we can speak about
Things that happened in the past things that happened before. Things that are that
Happening right now and also things that are going to happen
This is when we use the future tense so we actually have two and ways to talk
About the future
The first one is using "Will" so you can say tomorrow I will eat
Yes. I want to eat I decided tacos
So tomorrow I will eat tacos.
Maybe you want to talk about your friends
Maybe tomorrow your friend is not going to eat tacos
Your friend is going to eat Pasta in that case we can use She for a girl
Or we can use He for men always remember She's for girl.
He's for boy. She will eat pasta
He how about your father what is your father going to eat tonight?
hmm... He's going to eat hamburgers
He's going to eat hamburgers.
Oh! Oh!
So
I've just told you that in the future tense we can use "will" he
Sorry. I will eat tacos and then I said she will eat pasta and then I said he is going to eat hamburgers
Are you confused? Don't worry. If you look at the grammar book it will tell you
Different things. I've read many grammar books that are all really exciting to
And and every grammar book tells a different thing
Some people say that "will" is stronger than "going to", but in a different grammar book
It says that "going to" is stronger than will
So who's right it doesn't matter who's right
What matters is that you know when and how to use them
So when we use will with He/She/I/We and They we do not need to change anything
These all stay the same I will She will He will
This is where it gets tricky if you want to use "going to" you have to change this verb
Okay. this is the basic to be verb
So do you know what the basic to be verb is that we use with "i"
Think about it..
I am okay. so we're going to use "going to"
I can say I am going to if you want to make it shorter
You say I'm going to...
If we use he which is the boy
Or she girl we have to use "is"
Okay
So now the way to make this one shorter or more natural
Does anyone know? we simply say he's or she's going to
So we said I am, He is or She is
We shorten to I'm, He's or She's
We are going to use "going to" now what about "we" does anyone remember what the to be form
Of the verb is we use with "we"
It is "Are"
We also use Are with They. We are going to the park.
They are going to the park. You're going to the park to make these one shorter
We can change it to "We're", "They're",
And "You're". okay. so let's just add in our future tense
By the way this dot..dot..dot.. means you get to fill in whatever you want
Ok so We, They, and You ARE cases to "We're going to" "They're going to" and "You're going to"
When we use
"I". You've to say "I" He's/She's going to okay.
And the other future tense is "will" now as I mentioned before every text book
Says something different about the strength and when and why you should use and when
Sorry we're going to all right there's one rule and I full don't like to follow
Very many rules myself, but this is one that I think a little bit handy a good tip
We will use "will" and when we do something very quickly without thinking about it
For example if I'm sitting at my house and my mom my dad my two brothers and
My two sisters and I are all home and the phone rings. Hi Hello
I'll get it!!
Okay
I didn't say i'm going to get it
That makes it seem like it's going to take me a long time
Hold on i'm going to get it now
You gotta pick that phone up right away. I'll get it..
Anyone of you who played volleyball
When you're playing volleyball and the ball is coming at you. you're not going to say
No that's good i'm gonna get. You say its mine I'll get it and you get it
We use this when there's a very short time to think
Okay.. so just use "Will" you can remember it when you're short of thinking time or your decision is made
Quickly.
So what are you going to do tonight
I don't know what I'm going to do, but it sure will be fun. If you want to check out
