Toekomende tijd

In het Engels kan je op meerdere manieren aangeven dat iets in de toekomst gebeurt. In dit overzicht bespreken we 2 van deze manieren:

Will + hele werkwoord

Am, are of is + going to + hele werkwoord

Will + hele werkwoord

Will + hele werkwoord

Het hele werkwoord kan van alles zijn.

I will listen to the teacher.

He will go to school next week.

You won't make it in time.

Will they come over tonight?

Will + hele werkwoord

Je gebruikt will + hele werkwoord wanneer je iets spontaan besluit of wanneer het een voorspelling is (iets zal waarschijnlijk gebeuren maar het is niet helemaal zeker)

Shall + hele werkwoord

Shall + hele werkwoord gebruik je alleen bij vragen met I of we.

Het gaat dan meestal om een beleefd verzoek of een beleefde vraag.

Shall we go to the cinema tonight?

Shall I come over this afternoon?

Going to +hele werkwoord

Going to + hele werkwoord

Als je iets van plan bent te gaan doen of je hebt bewijs voor je voorspelling (bijna zeker dat het gaat gebeuren) dan gebuik je :

am, are of is + going to + hele werkwoord
