We can use the word 'will' when we are talking about the future, in a very similar way to how we use 'be going to.' Sentences using 'will' to talk about the future are formed using:
subject + 'will' + verb
| Subject | 'will' | Verb | |
|---|---|---|---|
| I, You, He, She, It, We, You, They | will | sing | in the school play next month. |
Remember that we can also use contractions for 'will', like 'you'll' or 'I'll.'
We can also use 'will' to make negative sentences. These are made by using:
subject + 'will' + not + verb
| Subject | 'will' | not | Verb | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| I, You, He, She, It, We, You, They | will | not | watch | the school play next month. |
Remember that we can also use 'won't' instead of 'will not.'
