Inglés Prueba Libre - Lunes 14 de noviembre

Estudiamos cuatro formas de expresar el futuro en inglés:

1. Future with WILL. Utillizamos esta forma para expresar:

• Predictions. Predicciones futuras de algo que no estamos seguros que va a suceder. (Ej. In 2050, teachers will be robots.// In 20 years, houses will be very cheap)
• Promises. Promesas. (Ej. I promise I will help you)
• Sudden decisions. Frases que comiencen con el verbo "think" o para expresar cosas que acabamos de decidir en el momento. (Ej. I think we'll be good friends // You look tired, darling. I'll cook dinner for you.)
• Frases con la palabra "ojalá" (Maybe or perhaps) (Ej. Perhaps he will come to your party)
