1. 'Going to' vs. 'Will' in

'Going to'

We use 'going to' to talk about:

● Plans or intentions that have already been made:


○ I’m going to visit my friends next weekend.
○ She is going to study medicine next year.
● Predictions based on evidence (something we can see happening):
○ Look at the clouds! It’s going to rain.
○ He’s running fast! He’s going to fall.

I am going to go TO my work . except - GO HOME

I am at work.

'Will' -will not/ Won't


nature - neichur

It won't rain -

Milei is going to win the next elections


Milei will win the next elections

want to - querer - I want to go (me quiero ir)

can / can't
We use 'will' to talk about:

● Spontaneous decisions made at the moment:


○ I’m tired. I will go to bed early tonight.
○ She forgot her lunch. I will make her a sandwich.
● Predictions about the future (without evidence):
○ I think it will snow tomorrow.
○ They will win the game.

Key Differences:

● 'Going to' is used for plans and predictions based on what we can
see.
○ I’m going to travel to Spain next year.
● 'Will' is used for spontaneous decisions and predictions without
evidence.
○ I’m thirsty. I will get a drink.

Examples:

● 'Going to' for plans:


○ I’m going to visit my family next month.
○ They are going to have a meeting tomorrow.
● 'Will' for spontaneous decisions:
○ I’m cold. I will close the window.
○ It’s late. I will call a taxi.
