⚡ THE 'WILL' PATTERN

When we talk about the future (things that haven't happened yet), we use will.

Look at these examples from the text:

  • People will travel \rightarrow (Future action)
  • People will drive \rightarrow (Future action)
  • July 2 will be the busiest day \rightarrow (Future state)

How to build it: Person/Thing + will + action word

Simple Tips for A2:

  • Use will for predictions (guessing what happens).
  • It doesn't matter if it is one person or many people; will never changes shape.
  • Example: I will go / They will go / The car will go.
