Another way to make the future tense is by using “(be) going to.” I will see my friends on the weekend. I am going to see my friends on the weekend. The meaning is the same in both sentences, but the “going to” future is often preferred because it sounds a little more relaxed and conversational. Practice the “going to” future in the next lesson. |
