1. _Definition of the Simple Future_: The simple future tense in English describes actions that will occur after the present moment. It's formed using the auxiliary 'will' followed by the main verb in its base form, skipping 'to'.
2. _Use of the Simple Future_: We use the simple future to make predictions, keep promises, make snap decisions, or express certainties about future events.
3. _Sentence Structure_: The basic formula for crafting sentences in the simple future is: Subject + 'will' + Verb (base form). For example, 'I will travel to London next year.'
4. _Negatives and Questions_: To create negative sentences, we place 'not' after 'will' (or use the contraction 'won't'). For instance, 'She will not (won’t) join the meeting.' For questions, invert the position of 'will' and the subject, like 'Will you come to the party?'
5. _Practical Examples_: Some direct examples include: 'They will go to the concert tomorrow.', 'I will help you with your homework.', 'We won’t be late.', 'Will it rain tomorrow?'
6. _Analogies and Comparisons_: Contrast the use of the simple future with present continuous for future plans, noting the distinctions. For example, 'I am going to visit my grandparents next weekend.' vs. 'I will visit my grandparents next weekend.'
