You use I’ll/I will when you offer something or decide to do something:
Examples:
| I’ll carry the shopping bags inside. (you have offered/decided to carry the shopping bags) |
| I will ring my sister tomorrow. (you have decided to ring your sister) |
| I will try to behave. (you have decided to behave) |
| I’ll go to sleep at 9pm. (you have decided the time you’re going to sleep) |
| I’ll cook on the weekend. (you have offered/decided to cook) |
We often say I think I’ll…. when we decide to do something:
Examples:
| I think I’ll go swimming tomorrow. |
| I think I’ll sleep in on Sunday morning. |
| I think I’ll wake up early tomorrow morning. |
| I think I’ll sit outside in the sun. |
| I think I’ll read a book and a relax. |
| I think I’ll make myself a cup of tea. |
We often say I don’t think I’ll…. when we decide to do something:
Examples:
| I don’t think I’ll go out tonight. |
| I don’t think I’ll invite Joshua to my birthday party. |
| I don’t think I’ll go to the supermarket today. |
| I don’t think I’ll phone your grandma now. |
| I don’t think I’ll order food tonight. |
We do not use the present simple in the following:
Examples:
I’ll phone you tomorrow. (not I phone you tomorrow)
I think I’ll go out to eat tonight. (not I think I go out to eat tonight)
More examples:
| Present simple | |
|---|---|
| I sleep | I think I’ll sleep early tonight. (not I think I sleep early tonight.) |
| I go | I think I’ll go for a jog tomorrow morning. (not I think I go for a jog tomorrow morning.) |
| I jump | I’ll jump on the trampoline with you. (not I jump on the trampoline with you.) |
We do not use I’ll for something you have decided before:
Example:
I’m working on Saturday. (not I’ll work on Saturday.) …Because you have already decided that you are going to be working on Saturday.
More examples:
| I’m going to the cinema tonight. (not I’ll go the cinema tonight) |
| I’m going to watch television tonight. (not I’ll watch television tonight) |
| I’m driving to work tomorrow. (not I’ll drive to work tomorrow) |
| I’m catching the bus to school tomorrow. (not I’ll catch the bus to school tomorrow) |
Shall I / Shall we ?
When we ask questions beginning with ‘Shall I’ or ‘Shall we’, you’re asking if you think this is a good idea/thing to do.
Example:
Mum: What are you doing tonight?
Emma: Nothing. Shall we go swimming?
(Emma is asking mum if she thinks it’s good idea to go swimming)
More examples:
| Shall I invite Thomas to my birthday party? |
| Shall I go to sleep now? |
| Shall I call you later? |
| Shall I open the window? |
| Shall we go out for dinner tonight? |
| Where shall we order food from? |
| What shall I wear to Emma’s party? |
| When shall we come over to your house? |
| Shall we go to the park? |
