Will and Going to


When to use WILL

In other cases, where there is no implicit or explicit connection to the present, use WILL:
1. For things that we decide to do now.
  • I'll buy one for you too.
  • I think I'll try one of those. (I just decided this right now)
2. When we think or believe something about the future.
  • My team will not win the league this season.
  • I think it will rain later so take an umbrella with you.
3. To make an offer, a promise or a threat.
  • I'll give you a discount if you buy it right now.
  • I promise I will behave next time.

Negative Sentences with WILL

In the negative, we add NOT to the end of WILL.

Contractions

It is possible to use contractions in both positive and negative sentences.
With positive contractions WILL becomes 'LL and is joined to the subject:
