DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BE
GOING TO AND WILL IN FUTURE SIMPLE TENSE
Future simple tense
It is used to express an action which has not occurred yet and will
occur after saying or in future. Simple Future has two different forms in
English: "will" and "be going to." Although the two forms
can sometimes be used interchangeably, they often express two very different
meanings. These different meanings might seem too abstract at first, but with
time and practice, the differences will become clear. Both "will" and
"be going to" refer to a specific time in the future.
