 Simple Future
Simple Future has two different forms in
English: "will" and "be going to."
USE 1 "Will" to Express a Voluntary
Action
"Will" often suggests that a speaker will do
something voluntarily.
we use "will not" or "won't" when we refuse to
voluntarily do something.

Examples:
I will send you the information when I get it.
I will translate the email, so Mr. Smith can
read it.
USE 2 "Will" to Express a Promise
Examples:
I will call you when I arrive.
 FORM Will:

What will you do?

Negative subject + won't (will not) +C

Interrogative Will + subject + C ?

USE 2: "Be going to“
Express a Plan
"Be going to" expresses that something is a
plan. It expresses the idea that a person
intends to do something in the future.
