Will you? Will you marry me?
Will they? Will they ever stop talking?
Will he? Will he shout if we talk too loud?
Will she? Will she win a prize if she wins the competition?
Will it? Will it rain tomorrow morning?

We usually use ‘will’ for the future

Examples:

  • We will go on holiday together one day.
  • She will travel across the world.
  • It will snow later this month.
  • My sister will probably go out in the evening with her friends.
  • Susan will have her tea at her grandma’s house tomorrow.
  • I’ll be at home at 7pm so you can call me around that time.
  • If you don’t finish your food, your brother will eat it in the night.
  • I’ll drink a cup of tea after I finish cleaning up.

 

We often say I think will .
 

Examples:

  • I think it will snow tomorrow.
  • I don’t think Emma will be back home until late.
  • I don’t think I will wake up early tomorrow.
  • I think Josh will win the swimming competition.
  • Do you think the exam will be hard?
  • Do you think our teach will arrive late to lesson?
  • I think tomorrow will be sunny.
  • I don’t think my aunty will have a big wedding.

 

We do not use will for things we have already decided to do

 

Example: I am not working tomorrow. (not I will not work tomorrow, because I have already decided that I will not be working tomorrow)

 
More examples:

  • We’re going to the park to play football. (not we will go to the park to play football)
  • Are you going to go to Josh’s birthday party? (not will you go to Josh’s birthday party)
  • I’m not having a race with you. (not I won’t have a race with you)
  • He’s not jumping on the trampoline. (not He won’t jump on the trampoline)

Shall

You can say

  • I shall…
  • We shall…

You cannot say

  • You shall…
  • They shall…
  • He shall…
  • She shall…
  • It shall…

I shall = I will

We shall = We will

Examples:

Shall Will
I shall be late home. I will be late home
I shall eat dinner at 8pm. I will eat dinner at 8pm
We shall arrive at the airport just after noon. We will arrive at the airport just after noon.
We shall eat out for lunch. We will eat out for lunch.
