dear teachers...remember that will and going to are used for furure reference and predictions.......the difference is the following we use will for things mentioned at the moment of speaking......the first sentence says " still"it is happening right now........................on the other hand.....the second sentence refers to something planned...something arranged.......so the answer is going to...something that is going to happen in the future..that is obvious....
please confirm my predictions.....jjijijijji and soon ...I need to work...jiji |
