Future tenses with predictions
We use both will and to be going to when we want to make a prediction about the future. A prediction is a statement that we make about the future. When a person makes a prediction they say what they think will happen in the future.

When to use GOING TO
The structure BE GOING TO is normally used to indicate the future but with some type of connection to the present. We use it in the following situations:
1. When we have already decided or we INTEND to do something in the future. (Prior Plan)
The decision has been made before the moment of speaking.
They're going to retire to the beach - in fact they have already bought a little beach house.
I'm going to accept the job offer.



Slide 5 - Diapositive

When "going to"(2)
2. When there are definite signs that something is going to happen. (Evidence)

Something is likely to happen based on the evidence or experience you have.
I think it is going to rain - I just felt a drop.
I don't feel well. I think I'm going to throw up. (throw up = vomit)

Slide 6 - Diapositive

When "going to"(3)
3. When something is about to happen:

Get back! The bomb is going to explode.

Slide 7 - Diapositive

Je kunt ook de present simple gebruiken
We use the present simple tense in two cases. First, we use it for a timetabled event in the future, like public transport or the start of a class:
My train leaves at six tonight.
His class starts at 9am tomorrow.

Slide 8 - Diapositive

Je kunt de present simple ook gebruiken na bepaalde woorden
Second, we use it after certain words, when the sentence has a future meaning. These words are: before / after / as soon as / until / when:
I'll call you when I get home.
She's going to study after she finishes dinner.
Please drink some water as soon as you complete the race.

Slide 9 - Diapositive

When to use WILL
In other cases, where there is no implicit or explicit connection to the present, use WILL:

Slide 10 - Diapositive

Will:
1. For things that we decide to do now. (Rapid Decisions)

This is when you make a decision at that moment, in a spontaneous way.
I'll buy one for you too.
I think I'll try one of those. (I just decided this right now)

Slide 11 - Diapositive

Will:
2. When we think or believe something about the future. (Prediction)

My team will not win the league this season.
I think it will rain later so take an umbrella with you.
Note: You can use both Will and Going to for making future predictions.

Slide 12 - Diapositive

Will:
3. To make an offer, a promise or a threat.

I'll give you a discount if you buy it right now.
I promise I will behave next time.
I'll take you to the movies if you'd like.

Slide 13 - Diapositive

Will:
4. You use WON'T when someone refuses to do something.

I told him to take out the trash but he won't do it.
My kids won't listen to anything I say.
My car won't start.

Slide 14 - Diapositive

Compare Will vs. Going To
If someone asks: "Are you busy this evening?"

If I respond: "Yes, I'm going to go to the movies." I use going to because it is a plan I made earlier (before I was asked the question). - In this case we cannot use Will.
If I haven't made plans, then you can say either: "I will probably watch TV." OR "I'm probably going to watch TV."
Both will and going to are possible in this situation because we are predicting what will happen (since we haven't made any plans).
