FUTURE TENSE: SIMPLE FUTURE
No change occurs in the simple form of the verb in the expression of the future, but English has a few ways of indicating futurity.
- By using the modal auxiliary verbs ‘shall’ and ‘will’
e.g I shall travel soon.
You will see me again.
- By using the form ‘be going’ and ‘to’ infinitive:
Emeka is going to succeed
It is going to rain today
- By using the present progressive
Adamu is leaving tomorrow
We are travelling next year.
