FUTURO CON "TO BE GOING TO"

Si forma con: to be going to + verbo alla forma base
  • È molto comune nella lingua parlata

Have you phoned Sally? Not yet. I'm going to phone her later

  • Esprime l'intenzione di compiere un'azione e precisamente:
Si usa per esprimere qualcosa che ho deciso di fare (decided) ma non necessariamente l'ho già pianificato (arranged)
  • Può esprimere anche qualcosa che sappiamo sta per accadere (perché è evidente)

Look at those black clouds! It's going to rain

FUTURO CON WILL / SHALL

Do you think Tom will pass the exam? Yes, he'll pass easily

  • esprime una previsione su quello che accadrà (che NON dipende dall'intenzione del soggetto, né è stato programmato!)
  • oppure esprime una decisione istantanea, presa nel momento in cui si parla

I've left the door open. I'll go and shut it

What would you like to drink? I'll have an orange juice, please

TRICK

Interactivity is the key piece to capturing the interest and attention of your audience. A genially is interactive because your audience explores and engages with it.

What you read: interactivity and animation can turn the most boring content into something fun. At Genially, we use AI (Awesome Interactivity) in all our designs, so you can level up with interactivity and turn your content into something that adds value and engages. If you want to provide additional information or develop the content in more detail, you can do so through your oral presentation. We recommend that you train your voice and practice: the best improvisation is always the most rehearsed!

Here you can put a highlighted title
