Pre-Int 2 - Future (2) Going to e Will

The Future - Going to/not going to

Il futuro - Going to/not going to

'Will' isn't the only way to express the future. 'Going to' is another very common way.

'Will' non è l'unico modo per formare il futuro. 'Going to' è un altro modo molto comune.

Formed: Subject + going to + verb (infinitive).

Formato: Soggetto + going to + verbo (infinito).

Positive Affermativo	Negative Negativo	Interrogative Interrogativo
I'm going to	I'm not going to	Am I going to?
You're going to	You're not going to	Are you going to?
He/she/it's going to	He/she/it's not going to	Is he/she/it going to?
We're going to	We're not going to	Are we going to?
You're going to	You're not going to	Are you going to?
They're going to	They're not going to	Are they going to?

Note: With the verb 'to go' we rarely say 'going to go'

Nota: Con il verbo 'to go' raramente diciamo 'going to go'

Examples/Esempi:

I am going to go to the park. Andro' al parco più tardi. This sounds a little clumsy. It's more natural to say 'I'm going to the park later today.

I am going to go to the park later today. Andro' al parco più tardi. Questo suona un po' goffo. È più naturale dire: 'I'm going to the park later today.'

When to use 'Going to'

Quando si usa 'Going to'

A) Evidence: When you can SEE something's going to happen.

A) Evidenza: Quando si VEDE che qualcosa sta per succedere:

	Example/Esempio: She's going to have a baby. (Avrà un bambino).
Write similar sentences for the following pictures: Scrivi delle frasi simili per le seguenti immagini:
	Answer/Risposta: He's going to fall.
	Answer/Risposta: She's going to win.
	Answer/Risposta: They're going to kiss.
	Answer/Risposta: It's going to rain.
