Future Simple

Future Simple используется для выражения действий, которые произойдут в будущем.

В нем используется вспомогательный глагол "will", за которым следует базовая форма основного глагола.

Formulation

Positive Statements: Subject + will + base verb + rest of the sentence
Example: She will go to the party tonight.

Negative Statements: Subject + will + not + base verb + rest of the sentence
Example: They will not (won't) play basketball tomorrow.

Questions: Will + subject + base verb + rest of the sentence?
Example: Will you join us for dinner?
