Your relaxing with fluency.

Coach Ethan coming to you from the Citadel Park in Barcelona.

And I'm pretty excited because my parents are going to be coming to Barcelona.

They are arriving on Monday, and we are gonna be renting a house in the north.

Katsina will probably, you know, go visit some villages.

Some medieval villages go to some beaches, eat some delicious food.

I am really excited to walk down ancient streets and really live the history.

And, you know, I'm gonna be working.

But I'll also try to have some fun.

I think it's gonna be awesome.

All right.

So, as you can tell from that little story today, we're talking all about the future tense in English.

And if you are like most English learners, you probably are overusing will.

And so today we're going to show you how to master the three different types of the future, tense in English.

And if you want to take your fluency to the next level, remember to like and subscribe to our channel so we can bring you more fantastic lessons like this every single week.

All right, let's get into it.

The truth is most learners speak about the future.

Wrong In school, you were probably taught that in English to speak about the future.

You simply do subject plus will plus the infinitive.

For example, I will go.

I will travel, et cetera.

Most learners overused will to speak about the future which can communicate the wrong message.

However, we have three verb forms.

We used to speak about the future, depending on the situation and what we're trying to communicate, going thio or gonna and will are not alternatives.

Depending on what you're trying to say, you need to use one or the other the president in us which you probably know we often used to communicate something happening in the current moment, for example, I'm going to the store can also be used to talk about the future.

Thes aren't hard rules more like communication guidelines that natives, of course, break sometimes.

And in this video we will discuss how to talk about the future and when to correctly use each future form will going to and the present continuous.

Then, to exemplify this, we will show you some funny scenes from friends.

Finally, we have a quiz to test your learning, so stick around until the end.

For that, we'll use going thio not will for future plans and intentions.

That is when we have already decided to do something.

For example, we are going to meet this Friday to discuss the project.

I'm going to study abroad When I go to college.

Ashley is going to raise the child by herself.

We also use going to for predictions, especially when you concede e or have some evidence.

For example, Barcelona is going to win the game.

They have a better team.

Congress is going to vote to impeach the president if he keeps screwing up like this.

I got great grades at school, so I bet I'm gonna get accepted to Harvard.

We use will not going to for instant decisions, promises, offers, future fax or suggestions.

For example, for instant decisions, I'll have the eggs in a cup coffee.

Note that even though it seems like this is happening in the present, we use the future tense for promises we won't tell them in your secret.

I swear for offers.

If you like, I'll carry your bag for you.

For future fax.

She'll be for the meeting at five like going to.

We can also use will for predictions, but we're guessing or do not have evidence, For example, a price study abroad in London or Toronto.

If we say, for example, I'm going to study abroad in London, then it sounds like a decided plan.

They get married when they're ready.

If we say they're going to get married when they already, it seems like they already know when they will be ready and therefore when they will get married.

So although it is not incorrect, it is a strange phrase.

I think she will be the next president if we say she's going to be the next president.

It sounds like she was already elected and just needs to be inaugurated.

That is actually began her term as president.

By the way, don't get too stressed out about telling the difference because this is not a hard rule and four predictions we can use will and going thio pretty interchangeably.

We use present continuous not going thio for future arrangements.

However, the difference is really small and using the two when talking about plans, and they can be used interchangeably.

Most of the time.

Will is used when we are not certain about the future plan going to shows that we have decided to do something.

And the present continuous is even more precise, giving the actual future date for the plan.

So, for example, I am fine to India this Saturday with going to We wouldn't include the future date.

I'm going to spend my vacation in India with will.

We would probably include some uncertainty.

I will probably spend my vacation in India or Thailand for another example.

Dan and Layla are getting married next year.

Dan and Layla are going to get married.

I think Dan and Leila will get married and the last example.

He's starting university in September.

All right, it's your turn.

Can you tell me about a future plan you have or might have using these three forms?

Pause now and do that in the comments below.

All right, Did you write your examples?

Then let's continue with some real life examples from friends.

Come on in.

I'm sure it's fine.

It's fun.

Robbie's gonna be here for hours.

Okay?

Okay.

I am just going to get up, go to work and not think about him all day or else.

I'm just gonna get up and go to work.

Will would not work here because it would be strange to not be certain about getting up going to work, etcetera.

And if we want to use present continuous, we should show more specificity.

For example, I'm getting up tomorrow date and going to work.

Meeting with that guy went great.

So great.

You show me where the restaurant's gonna be.

It's this cute little place on 10 streets.

Not too big, Not too small.

It's just right.

Carol's a lesbian.

She's living with a woman named Susan.

She's pregnant with my child, and she and Susan are going to raise the baby.

I said we're not going to do it.

Okay?

Sometimes you can be such a big baby.

All right, I've got to go.

Come on, Come on.

Yeah.

We're gonna go take a bath.

Yes, we are usually, alternatively, we're taking a bath this evening.

No, I don't think this was your shot.

I don't even think you just get one shot.

I really believe big things are gonna happen for you.

Look, been through a divorce.

Trust me.

You're gonna be fine.

I just can't see it now because you haven't had any closure closer.

That's what it is.

That's what I need.

Forget about the fact I just dropped $400 to replace a bracelet that I hated to begin with.

I've got something that's gonna make you happy.

Gets the gun crew found another drink, some dessert, a big screen TV.

I will go for that drink.

By the way, this means that you accept someone's offer to buy you a drink.

That sounds great.

Same for me and for the gentleman.

Yeah, I'll have the Thai chicken pizza, but hate.

Look, if I get it without the nuts and leeks and stuff, is it cheaper in English?

When you order at a restaurant?

Just saying I want something can sound rude.

We use either will like here or often a polite question.

For example, can I have a cup of coffee, please?

Here's some other examples.

All of have the steak and a glass of red wine.

I'll have the big salmon.

I'll just be in the street.

Find some I know you will.

The right woman waiting for you.

If you never smoke again, I'll give you $7000.

Yeah, right.

I'll get it.

Um, listen, why don't you guys sit down and we'll get you some glasses?

Wouldn't five minutes my pan feel, but you'll have to live with the knowledge that you sent an honest man to die.

Hey, that was really good.

Yeah.

I think the baby can totally hear everything I can show you.

Okay, this is seem a little weird, but you put your head inside this turkey, we'll talk and you'll hear everything we say.

Listen, if that's how you feel about the guy Monica Dumpem No, it's just really hard, Big boy.

You'll get over it.

And we will take every last dime you haven't.

You will hate yourselves forever.

Hey, is the birthday boy Ross!

Check it out.

Hockey tickets.

Rangers Penguins tonight at the garden.

And we're taking you happy birthday, pal.

It's a sure thing.

He has no choice but to go.

We could also use going to hear.

However, if we use and will take you it sounds like you're suggesting or offering that he come.

Okay, well, I'm working tomorrow, but if you want, you could you could you could come way Gotta go.

Okay.

Oh, right.

Um, I've got some news.

It's about us.

We're getting married, as we showed in some of the examples because they use present continuous.

There's an understanding that they already know when they will get married, But going to would also be fine here.

Now you're doing this whole book tour thing.

How is that going?

Oh, fine.

And leaving for New York tomorrow, which I hate, but I get to see my son who I love.

Now it is time for your test.

This will have two parts in part one.

We will give you an example from friends, but the future tense will be removed.

You need to guess, based on the context, whether it would be going to will or the present continuous.

Finally, we will show you the clip with the correct answer.

In Part two, we will show you a clip from friends with one of the future forms.

You need to decide why that form is being used.

We will give you four options.
