What to Focus On

  • Won't is the negative form of will.
  • Will can show certainty or an uncontrollable future event.

  • Going to shows an intention or decision made beforehand.
  • Going to can show a prediction based on clear present evidence.
  • Going to may show intention even when there is no fixed arrangement.

  • Present continuous can show a future action if the arrangement is already made.
  • The time must be mentioned when present continuous is used for future meaning.
