đź”® Future Predictions (Will)

We use will when we talk about:

  • Predictions — what we think or expect will happen
  • Beliefs or opinions — what we believe about the future
UseExample
PredictionPeople will live on Mars one day.
BeliefI think it will rain later.
GuessIt will probably be expensive.
OpinionShe won’t enjoy that movie.

đź§  Remember:
We use will + base verb for all subjects — no “to”, no “-s”, no “-ing”!
