The future There are several verb forms we use to express the future. Simple present for timetables/schedules: My vacation starts tomorrow. The train leaves at six o'clock. Present continuous for arrangements you have already made: We're seeing some friends tonight, so we can’t come. Are you leaving next weekend? Some verbs are not used in the continuous form (e.g., need, want, know). Going to for plans or intentions: What are you going to do this afternoon? Going to expresses a future plan made before the moment of speaking. Will for prediction: The party will be great. Going to can express a prediction, based on evidence: The sun's shining. The weather is going to be great today.Future continuous (will be + -ing) can express prediction, based on something we already know: It's nearly nine o'clock. John will be finishing work soon. Future perfect (will have + past participle) for an action that will (or won’t) be completed before a time in the future: | will have finished all my work by seven o'clock. We won't have painted the ceiling before Friday. Will Simon have cleaned the house before we arrive? Questions question forms There are many ways to ask questions in English. Questions ending in prepositions: What did he ask about? Who is your present from? Questions where the question word is the subject, with no auxiliary verb (do/dia): Who told you to come here? Which famous company makes the iPod?Indirect questions are used to sound more polite, with no auxillary (do/dia): | wonder where he is. I'm not sure why he left so early. Do you mind if | sit down? Negative questions can be used to express various ideas: Didn’t | tell you the answer? (confirmation) Haven't you finished the report yet? (surprise/criticism) Isn't it hot today? exclamation) Don't you think we should ask first? (suggestion) question tags You can use a question tag: 1 for confirmation or agreement. We saw that movie last week, didn't we? You don't like fish, do you? 2 when you don't know the answer. Theyre from Japan, arenT they? You haven't been here before, have you? A positive statement has a negative tag. A negative statement has a positive tag. Notice that your voice goes down on the question tag when you think you are correct, but up on the question tag when you are not sure.Articles a/an We use a or an before singular countable nouns when we talk about something for the first time. | saw a movie last night. / Can | have an apple?
