Grammar

Present Continuous as a Future tense

• We also use the Present Continuous as a future tense. We use it to express a definite plan and arrangement that we have thought of and decided on from before the time of speaking. We use this tense when the action is certain to happen and we have already made arrangements for it.
  

e.g. I’m flying to Paris at the weekend. (I have packed my suitcase and I have bought my plane ticket.)

Be going to

• We use “Be going to” to talk about what we  plan or intend to do but no arrangements have been made. So, the action is not as certain to happen as it is with the Present Continuous where arrangements for the action have been made.

Example:

I’m going to visit my relatives in America next year.

(The date of travel has not been decided or arranged nor have I bought my flight ticket yet.)

Example:

– What are you going to do to save the planet?   (What do you intend to do?)

– I am going to reduce my rubbish and recycle.

• We also use “be going to” to make a prediction based on what we can see or what we know

Example:

Look at those clouds! It’s going to rain!

(Prediction based on what we can see)
