Hello class and welcome to the second term and the third unit. 00:00:00
So far we've looked at verb tenses that have to do or are connected to the present and the past. 00:00:13
Today we're going to turn to the future forms or the future tenses. 00:00:28
There is something that you have to know in particular about English, 00:00:39
and that is that in English we don't have one future tense. 00:00:47
Rather, we use several forms to talk about different ideas about the future. 00:00:54
And today we're going to look at the main ones, the main forms. 00:01:02
Let's start with the logical or the easier one, which is WILL. 00:01:10
WILL is followed by an infinitive. 00:01:19
By the way, if you want to know how all these forms that we're going to see today are used in other forms, like not only affirmative, but also negative and questions, I strongly recommend you to watch the video that you have in the book. 00:01:23
You can also see, I also speak about it in the aula virtual, okay? 00:01:50
Plus, don't forget that there is a chart that summarizes all the forms of the verbs in the aula virtual, too. 00:01:58
So, coming back to future, to will and infinitive. 00:02:10
What do we use will for? 00:02:15
We use WILL mainly in four cases. When you decide something but you 00:02:18
do not plan it, you have not planned it beforehand. In other words, when you make 00:02:32
an instant decision, a decision that you make in this very moment, with 00:02:39
predictions, but a prediction like the one that you could see, let's say, in the 00:02:46
tarot cards, or like there is no evidence to prove that your prediction is 00:02:54
correct or not. Offers and promises. Let's look at some examples. Here you can see 00:03:01
that's how the word will is in bold and infinitives are in underlined and they 00:03:10
are infinitives that means that they these verbs and all the verbs that go 00:03:19
after will do not change for any of the persons or if they do not change in any 00:03:29
case because they are the infinitive they are not present or something like 00:03:36
that let me remind you that the negative of will is will not want well let's look 00:03:43
at each of the examples this is an example of an instant decision imagine 00:03:55
you get to a restaurant and the waiter asks for asks you what you want to have 00:04:00
you just decide that I will have a cup of coffee in a cheesecake you just have 00:04:09
just decided that in the restaurant that is an instant decision you have not 00:04:17
planned that you were going to have that a prediction but a prediction without 00:04:21
any evidence I will find the right job one day something that you are 00:04:27
predicting but you're not sure about it and you've got no evidence about that I 00:04:32
think that this will happen but I have no evidence so imagine as for number 00:04:37
three example number three imagine that you see an old person in in the street 00:04:43
maybe it's your grandfather or a neighbor and they are carrying very 00:04:50
heavy bags. You want to help them and you just say I will help you with these bags. 00:04:59
It doesn't mean that you do it in the future. You're just offering your help in 00:05:04
this very moment. I will help you with these bags. So right now you take the bags of 00:05:08
this person and you have them carry them. Finally, a promise. I think that 00:05:14
this is the most typical example of will as a promise. It's not necessarily about 00:05:21
the future. It means, will you marry me? It really means, do you want to marry me? 00:05:28
Yes, I will. I promise I'm going to do that. I'm engaged to that. I promise to do 00:05:34
This is an example of a question of will used in a question where you can see as 00:05:40
you can see there is an auxiliary subject inversion. Okay let's move on to a 00:05:47
second form or a second way to speak about the future in English. This is to 00:05:55
be going to followed by infinitive, like will was. What do we use this for? We use 00:06:06
going to for plans or intentions and for predictions, but this time for these 00:06:15
predictions we have an evidence, not like the case that we saw before where we did 00:06:24
not have any evidence. Let's look at examples. Again, notice that I'm going to 00:06:31
changes, the verb to be changes for all the persons. It is, I am, but the main verb 00:06:41
does not change at all. It is an infinitive. So, I'm going to visit my 00:06:48
grandma. This is what I have planned. That's my intention. That's my plan. I 00:06:54
I have already decided it. 00:06:58
It's not an instant decision, like we saw before with Will. 00:07:01
It's going to rain, look at those clouds. 00:07:06
So there isn't evidence. 00:07:09
I can see gray clouds, so I am predicting out of evidence. 00:07:11
That's why we use to be going to. 00:07:17
A third form of the future is the present continuous. 00:07:21
the present continuous. We use the present continuous to talk about things 00:07:26
that we've arranged to do in the future. In that sense, it's a bit similar and 00:07:33
sometimes interchangeable with to be going to. There is a very slight 00:07:39
differentiation between them both. In the case of the present 00:07:45
continues. We know exactly when this is going to happen and usually they 00:07:51
are supposed to happen in the near future. I'm staying at the 00:07:58
Astoria hotel. We're getting married in July. You do know exactly when. If you 00:08:04
remember in the case of to be going to before, when we were talking about 00:08:12
your plans, you just said I'm going to visit my grandma, but you were not 00:08:18
stating when. It's a bit more vague. On the other hand, if the present 00:08:24
continues, here we have an arrangement, future arrangement. For these cases, 00:08:32
for these two cases, there is another person or organization involved. For 00:08:41
visiting your grandma, there was no other person or organization involved 00:08:46
necessarily. By the way, I haven't mentioned that for the present continuous 00:08:51
what we have to do is to use the present continuous with the same form that we've 00:08:56
seen. The verb to be changes for the different persons and the main verb is 00:09:01
written with the ing form. Finally, for today, we also have the present simple. 00:09:08
and this is one of the easiest uses because we use the present simple only 00:09:19
for future events that are part of a schedule or a timetable. But you're gonna 00:09:25
see this very easily with an example. The bus. You do have a 00:09:32
timetable of when buses are supposed to arrive. So the bus doesn't arrive at 11 00:09:43
a.m. it arrives at 11 p.m. what time does the movie begin tonight I mean there is 00:09:51
a fixed time the plane arrives at 12 p.m. there is a fixed time when these 00:09:58
things are supposed to happen that's when we use the present simple and 00:10:09
obviously we use it with the same forms and in the same way that we've seen 00:10:14
before the principle is used. So we need an es where there is a third person singular subject 00:10:20
and for the negative form you add not to them, excuse me, you add doesn't and for questions you 00:10:32
use thus or do of course and the same happened with the negative form so this 00:10:42
is a summary okay a visual summary where I want you to look and see and compare 00:10:50
the four forms that we've been talking about sorry I went too fast and I went 00:10:58
too far now. Okay, so these are the four chances. Going to, for plans and 00:11:08
intentions and prediction based on evidence. Will, for promises, for instant 00:11:21
decisions, not plans, something I haven't planned before, an offer, and a prediction 00:11:29
with no evidence. Present continuous is for a future arrangement, what is the 00:11:35
difference between an arrangement and a plan that for an arrangement I need 00:11:40
another organization or another person involved to organize I need an 00:11:44
arrangement is when I go to the dentist when but a plan is something that is 00:11:50
not so fixed although it is true that sometimes the use of going to and the 00:11:57
present continuous for this use like the use of the plan or future arrangements a 00:12:04
bit difficult to see in this there are very slight differences and finally the 00:12:09
presence temple when I have I'm going to speak about something that is going to 00:12:15
happen in the future but I do have a timetable so I hope that you you can 00:12:20
understand these four uses of the these four forms of the future you have any 00:12:30
questions you know that I am available in the video call and via messages if you 00:12:37
