[00:00.63]For VOA Learning English, this is Everyday Grammar.
[00:06.60]This week, we are going to talk about the future tenses. There are several ways to talk about future events in English. Compared to the past and present, future tenses are usually more flexible.
[00:23.60]Let's start with will. To form the simple future, use will and then the simple form of the verb. For example, ¡°I will go to the store.¡±
[00:36.40]In everyday conversation, will often gets shortened, which can be difficult for English learners to hear. For example, ¡°I'll leave tomorrow¡± or ¡°He'll go to the store.¡±
[00:51.30]You can use will to express a desire to do something. ¡°I'll help you move tomorrow.¡± or ¡°I'll answer the phone.¡±
[01:01.57]Be going to The second form of the simple future is be going to. For example, ¡°I am going to start a new job tomorrow.¡±
[01:12.20]Use be going to when you already have a plan to do something. When you say ¡°I'm going to start a new job tomorrow.¡±£¬ you made the plan in the past. 
[01:25.51]If you do not have a plan, use will.
