TOPIC: FUTURE TENSE WILL
Future Simple Tense
I will sing |
The future simple tense is often called will, because we make the future simple tense with the modal auxiliary will.
How do we make the Future Simple Tense?
The structure of the future simple tense is:
subject | + | auxiliary verb WILL | + | main verb |
invariable | base | |||
will | V1 |
For negative sentences in the future simple tense, we insert not between the auxiliary verb and main verb. For question sentences, we exchange the subject and auxiliary verb. Look at these example sentences with the future simple tense:
subject | auxiliary verb | main verb | |||
+ | I | will | open | the door. | |
+ | You | will | finish | before me. | |
- | She | will | not | be | at school tomorrow. |
- | We | will | not | leave | yet. |
? | Will | you | arrive | on time? | |
? | Will | they | want | dinner? |
When we use the future simple tense in speaking, we often contract the subject and auxiliary verb:
I will | I'll |
you will | you'll |
he will she will it will | he'll she'll it'll |
we will | we'll |
they will | they'll |
For negative sentences in the future simple tense, we contract with won't, like this:
I will not | I won't |
you will not | you won't |
he will not she will not it will not | he won't she won't it won't |
we will not | we won't |
they will not | they won't |

TOPIC: FUTURE TENSE WILL
TOPIC: FUTURE TENSE WILL
How do we use the Future Simple Tense?
No Plan
We use the future simple tense when there is no plan or decision to do something before we speak. We make the decision spontaneously at the time of speaking. Look at these examples:
- Hold on. I'll get a pen.
- We will see what we can do to help you.
- Maybe we'll stay in and watch television tonight.
In these examples, we had no firm plan before speaking. The decision is made at the time of speaking.
We often use the future simple tense with the verb to think before it:
- I think I'll go to the gym tomorrow.
- I think I will have a holiday next year.
- I don't think I'll buy that car.
Prediction
We often use the future simple tense to make a prediction about the future. Again, there is no firm plan. We are saying what we think will happen. Here are some examples:
- It will rain tomorrow.
- People won't go to Jupiter before the 22nd century.
- Who do you think will get the job?
Be
When the main verb is be, we can use the future simple tense even if we have a firm plan or decision before speaking. Examples:
- I'll be in London tomorrow.
- I'm going shopping. I won't be very long.
- Will you be at work tomorrow?

TOPIC: FUTURE TENSE GOING TO
Going to
Going to is not a tense. It is a special expression to talk about the future.
Structure of Going to
The structure is:
subject + be + going + infinitive
The verb be is conjugated (past, present or future).
subject | be | (not) | going | infinitive | ||
+ | I | am | going | to buy | a new car. | |
+ | I'm | going | to go | swimming. | ||
- | He | is | not | going | to take | the exam. |
- | It | isn't | going | to rain. | ||
? | Are | you | going | to paint | the house? |
Use of Going to
Going to - intention
We use going to when we have the intention to do something before we speak. We have already made a decision before speaking. Look at these examples:
- Jo has won the lottery. He says he's going to buy a Porsche.
- We're not going to paint our bedroom tomorrow.
- When are you going to go on holiday?
In these examples, we had an intention or plan before speaking. The decision was made before speaking.
Going to - prediction
We often use going to to make a prediction about the future. Our prediction is based on presentevidence. We are saying what we think will happen. Here are some examples:
- The sky is very black. It's going to snow.
- It's 8.30! You're going to miss the train!
- I crashed the company car. My boss isn't going to be very happy!
In these examples, the present situation (black sky, the time, damaged car) gives us a good idea of what is going to happen.

american english phonology
North American English regional phonology is the study of variations in the pronunciation of spoken English by the inhabitants of various parts of North America (United States and Canada).North American English can be divided into several regional dialects based on phonological, phonetic, lexical, and some syntactic features. North American English includes American English, which has several highly developed and distinct regional varieties, along with the closely related Canadian English, which is more homogeneous. American English (especially Western dialects) and Canadian English have more in common with each other than with the many varieties of English outside North America.
The most recent work documenting and studying the phonology of North American English dialects as a whole is the Atlas of North American English by William Labov, Sharon Ash, and Charles Boberg, on which much of the description below is based, following on a tradition of sociolinguistics dating to the 1960s; earlier large-scale American dialectology focused more on lexical variation than on phonology.

Phonemic Chart
This phonemic chart uses symbols from the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). IPA symbols are useful for learning pronunciation. The symbols on this chart represent the 44 sounds used in British English speech (Received Pronunciation or RP, an educated accent associated with but not exclusive to south-east England).
Learners and teachers may want to print a copy of this phonemic chart to keep close at hand for reference.

Note about length for speakers whose language doesn't make a difference between short and long vowels:
In English, vowels may be short or long. The phonetic symbols followed by colon (:) are long vowels.
Short vowels are very short, and long vowels usually take more than double the time to pronounce. All the English vowels sound different, but if you pronounce them with a foreign accent some of them may be confused; respecting the short-long difference will help natives to understand you.

COMPARISON OF AMERICAN AND BRITISH SOUNDS
|
|
- 1. Almost all dictionaries use the
e
symbol for the vowel in bed. The problem with this convention is thate
in the IPA does not stand for the vowel in bed; it stands for a different vowel that is heard, for example, in the German word Seele. The “proper” symbol for the bedvowel isɛ
(do not confuse withɜ:
). The same goes foreə
vs.ɛə
. - 2. In
əʳ
andɜ:ʳ
, theʳ
is not pronounced in BrE, unless the sound comes before a vowel (as inanswering, answer it). In AmE, theʳ
is always pronounced, and the sounds are sometimes written asɚ
andɝ
. - 3. In AmE,
ɑ:
andɒ
are one vowel, so calm and cot have the same vowel. In American transcriptions, hot is written ashɑ:t
. - 4. About 40% of Americans pronounce
ɔ:
the same way asɑ:
, so that caught and cot have the same vowel. See cot-caught merger. - 5. In American transcriptions,
ɔ:
is often written asɒ:
(e.g. law =lɒ:
), unless it is followed byr
, in which case it remains anɔ:
. - 6. In British transcriptions,
oʊ
is usually represented asəʊ
. For some BrE speakers,oʊ
is more appropriate (they use a rounded vowel) — for others, the proper symbol isəʊ
. For American speakers,oʊ
is usually more accurate. - 7. In
eəʳ
ɪəʳ
ʊəʳ
, ther
is not pronounced in BrE, unless the sound comes before a vowel (as indearest, dear Ann). In AmE, ther
is always pronounced, and the sounds are often written aser
ɪr
ʊr
. - 8. All dictionaries use the
r
symbol for the first sound in red. The problem with this convention is thatr
in the IPA does not stand for the British or American r; it stands for the “hard” r that is heard, for example, in the Spanish word rey or Italian vero. The “proper” symbol for thered consonant isɹ
. - 9. In American English,
t
is often pronounced as a flap t, which sounds liked
or (more accurately) like the quick, hard r heard e.g. in the Spanish word pero. For example: letter. Some dictionaries use thet ̬
symbol for the flap t.

IPA | what it means |
---|---|
ˈ | The vertical line (ˈ ) is used to show word stress. It is placed before the stressed syllable in a word. For example, /ˈkɒntrækt/ is pronounced like this, and/kənˈtrækt/ like that. Word stress is explained in our article about phonetic transcription. |
ʳ | ʳ is not a sound — it is a short way of saying that an r is pronounced only in American English. For example, if you write that the pronunciation of bar is/bɑ:ʳ/ , you mean that it is /bɑ:r/ in American English, and /bɑ:/ in British English. |
i | i is usually pronounced like a shorter version of i: , but sometimes (especially in an old-fashioned British accent) it can sound like ɪ . Examples: very /ˈveri/ , create/kriˈeɪt/ , previous /ˈpri:viəs/ , ability /əˈbɪlɪti/ . |
əl | əl means that the consonant l is pronounced as a separate syllable (the syllabic l, which sounds like a vowel), or that there is a short ə sound before it. Examples:little /ˈlɪtəl/ , uncle /ˈʌŋkəl/ .
Instead of the
əl symbol, some dictionaries use an l with a small vertical line underneath, or simply l , as in /ˈlɪtl/ . |
ən | ən means that the consonant n is pronounced as a separate syllable (the syllabic n, which sounds like a vowel), or that there is a short ə sound before it. Examples:written /ˈrɪtən/ , listen /ˈlɪsən/ .
Instead of the
ən symbol, some dictionaries use an n with a small vertical line underneath, or simply n , as in /ˈrɪtn/ . |

Infinitive or -ing?

- -ing form (doing, singing)
or - infinitive form (to do, to sing).
For example, only one of the following sentences is correct. Which one?
- I dislike working late. (???)
- I dislike to work late. (???)
When to use the infinitive
The infinitive form is used after certain verbs:
- forget, help, learn, teach, train
- choose, expect, hope, need, offer, want, would like
- agree, encourage, pretend, promise
- allow, can/can't afford, decide, manage, mean, refuse

- allow, can/can't afford, decide, manage, mean, refuse
- I forgot to close the window.
- Mary needs to leave early.
- Why are they encouraged to learn English?
- We can't afford to take a long holiday.
The infinitive form is always used after adjectives, for example:
- disappointed, glad, happy, pleased, relieved, sad, surprised
- disappointed, glad, happy, pleased, relieved, sad, surprised
- I was happy to help them.
- She will be delighted to see you.
This includes too + adjective:
- The water was too cold to swim in.
- Is your coffee too hot to drink?
The infinitive form is used after adjective + enough:
- He was strong enough to lift it.
- She is rich enough to buy two.
When to use -ing
The -ing form is used when the word is the subject of a sentence or clause:
- Swimming is good exercise.
- Doctors say that smoking is bad for you.
The -ing form is used after a preposition:
- I look forward to meeting you.
- They left without saying "Goodbye."
The -ing form is used after certain verbs:
- avoid, dislike, enjoy, finish, give up, mind/not mind, practise
- avoid, dislike, enjoy, finish, give up, mind/not mind, practise
- I dislike getting up early.
