PRESENT CONTINUOUS

FOR FUTURE PLANS

Empezar

USE

We usually use the present continuous when the plan is an arrangement – already confirmed with at least one other person and we know the time and place.

An arrangement is something that is done to prepare or plan for something in the future. It is also an agreement between two people or groups about something that will happen.

examples

Sue is starting an English course next summer. (She has already registered at a language school where she wants to study English).

There are some common expressions used to refer to or when the action will take place in the future.

Go, come, leave, arrive, fly, have, start, go out, visit, meet, stay.

There is a small selection of verbs to talk about things in the future that we have already planned.
