Explicação:

Answer 2

Qual a diferença entre “Will” e “To be going to”?

Ambos os termos são utilizados quando falamos de ações que acontecerão no futuro. Porém, existe um pequena diferença entre eles:

"To be going to"

Utilizado para quando a ação futura já foi planejada; quando o futuro está sendo preditado baseado no quê está acontecendo neste momento; quando algo está certo que acontecerá.

Sempre utilizamos o verbo “to be” antes no presente de acordo com o sujeito. Portanto, a estrutura é: To be + going to + action

The driver IS GOING TO help you with your bags.

My sister IS GOING TO study at Harvard next year.

We ARE GOING TO have a party on Saturday. Can you come?

My friends ARE GOING TO celebrate Christmas at home

What ARE you GOING TO do next?

Will

Utilizado quando uma ação acaba de ser decidida, ação imediata; ação futura de acordo com a sua própria opinião; quando se faz promessas.

A estrutura é: “Will” + ação

Based on their findings, scientists say we WILL have a bad winter this year.

That dog WILL bite you if you tease it.

I can’t decide. I guess I WILL buy the blue dress.

She hates vegetables. She WILL eat that salad.

The telephone is ringing. I WILL answer it!
