Uses: Simple Future Tense Class 5 English Grammar

We use the simple future tense

1. to express an action that will take place in the future.

Example:

  • shall return your dictionary tomorrow
  • They will come again next month

2. to talk about unplanned actions.

Example:

  • I’ll help you with your homework
  • It’s raining, I will close the window,

3. to make predictions.

Example:

  • It will rain tomorrow,
  • The trek will be difficult for you.

4. We use the will + verb to talk about actions that are not planned. The speaker decides to do the action at the time of speaking.

Example:

  • We will go to Iqbal’s party tomorrow.
  • If you sit down to study, I will help you complete your homework.

5. We use will + verb to predict a future event.

Example:

  • It will rain tomorrow.
  • The ice cream will melt if you don’t eat it quickly

6. We use will + verb to talk about promises or commands.

7. to show future action, we use words like

When an action is planned or arranged to take place in the near future, we sometimes use the be + going + to form instead of the Simple Future Tense.

We sometimes use be going to

Example:

  • I am going to prepare for the exam.
  • They are going to visit us again next month.

2. to make predictions.

Example:

  • Rita is going to win the quiz.
  • The children are going to hurt themselves.
