2
14740
5970
00:20

Never mind all that it doesn't matter it will come about I'm sure
4
21730

00:26
And so we're going to talk about the future tense and we can speak about

26020
11069
00:37
Things that happened in the past things that happened before. Things that are that
6
37400
4850
00:42
Happening right now and also things that are going to happen
7
42250
4710
00:47
This is when we use the future tense so we actually have two and ways to talk
8
47500
9750
00:57
About the future
9
57250
1589
00:58
The first one is using "Will" so you can say tomorrow I will eat
10
58839
13291
01:12
Yes. I want to eat I decided tacos
11
72130
5129
01:20
So tomorrow I will eat tacos.
12
80120
3000
01:27
Maybe you want to talk about your friends
13
87050
3840
01:30
Maybe tomorrow your friend is not going to eat tacos
14
90890
3720
01:34
Your friend is going to eat Pasta in that case we can use She for a girl
15
94610
9750
01:44
Or we can use He for men always remember She's for girl.
16
104360
5640
01:50
He's for boy. She will eat pasta
17
110000
13260
02:03
He how about your father what is your father going to eat tonight?
18
123260
4380
02:08
hmm... He's going to eat hamburgers
19
128330
6630
02:14
He's going to eat hamburgers.
20
134960
3060
02:18
Oh! Oh!
21
138020
3000
02:36
So
22
156090
1060
02:37
I've just told you that in the future tense we can use "will" he
23
157150
7050
02:45
Sorry. I will eat tacos and then I said she will eat pasta and then I said he is going to eat hamburgers
24
165010
12990
02:58
Are you confused? Don't worry. If you look at the grammar book it will tell you
25
178900
7320
03:06
Different things. I've read many grammar books that are all really exciting to
26
186500
5900
03:12
And and every grammar book tells a different thing
27
192400
4050
03:16
Some people say that "will" is stronger than "going to", but in a different grammar book
28
196450
7649
03:25
It says that "going to" is stronger than will
29
205000
3510
03:29
So who's right it doesn't matter who's right
30
209409
3720
03:33
What matters is that you know when and how to use them
31
213129
3961
03:37
So when we use will with He/She/I/We and They we do not need to change anything
32
217599
11581
03:49
These all stay the same I will She will He will
33
229720
5489
03:55
This is where it gets tricky if you want to use "going to" you have to change this verb
34
235209
8280
04:04
Okay. this is the basic to be verb
35
244329
3421
04:07
So do you know what the basic to be verb is that we use with "i"
36
247750
6299
04:14
Think about it..
37
254930
3329
04:18
I am okay. so we're going to use "going to"
38
258259
5101
04:29
I can say I am going to if you want to make it shorter
39
269000
5130
04:41
You say I'm going to...
40
281700
2469
04:44
If we use he which is the boy
41
284169
3930
04:48
Or she girl we have to use "is"
42
288879
6361
05:04
Okay
43
304070
1160
05:05
So now the way to make this one shorter or more natural
44
305230
5760
05:10
Does anyone know? we simply say he's or she's going to
45
310990
9210
05:28
So we said I am, He is or She is
46
328030
3150
05:31
We shorten to I'm, He's or She's
47
331180
3000
05:35
We are going to use "going to" now what about "we" does anyone remember what the to be form
48
335420
13470
05:48
Of the verb is we use with "we"
49
348890
2010
05:50
It is "Are"
50
350900
3750
05:56
We also use Are with They. We are going to the park.
51
356300
11640
06:07
They are going to the park. You're going to the park to make these one shorter
52
367940
9480
06:17
We can change it to "We're", "They're",
53
377420
960
06:29
And "You're". okay. so let's just add in our future tense
54
389289
7291
06:39
By the way this dot..dot..dot.. means you get to fill in whatever you want
55
399729
4261
06:43
Ok so We, They, and You ARE cases to "We're going to" "They're going to" and "You're going to"
56
403990
8129
06:52
When we use
57
412800
1539
06:54
"I". You've to say "I" He's/She's going to okay.
58
414339
5010
06:59
And the other future tense is "will" now as I mentioned before every text book
59
419349
10500
07:09
Says something different about the strength and when and why you should use and when
60
429849
5651
07:17
Sorry we're going to all right there's one rule and I full don't like to follow
61
437949
6720
07:24
Very many rules myself, but this is one that I think a little bit handy a good tip
62
444669
4590
07:30
We will use "will" and when we do something very quickly without thinking about it
63
450699
10020
07:41
For example if I'm sitting at my house and my mom my dad my two brothers and
64
461559
7341
07:49
My two sisters and I are all home and the phone rings. Hi Hello
65
469000
8490
07:57
I'll get it!!
66
477490
3000
08:06
Okay
67
486650
500
08:07
I didn't say i'm going to get it
68
487960
3690
08:11
That makes it seem like it's going to take me a long time
69
491650
3690
08:15
Hold on i'm going to get it now
70
495970
4830
08:20
You gotta pick that phone up right away. I'll get it..
71
500800
3200
08:24
Anyone of you who played volleyball
72
504100
2700
08:26
When you're playing volleyball and the ball is coming at you. you're not going to say
73
506800
3900
08:31
No that's good i'm gonna get. You say its mine I'll get it and you get it
74
511000
4950
08:35
We use this when there's a very short time to think
75
515950
3750
08:39
Okay.. so just use "Will" you can remember it when you're short of thinking time or your decision is made
76
519700
6270
08:49
Quickly.
77
529000
2240
08:59
