There are a few different ways in English to indicate that an action will happen in the future. This lesson focuses on the future tense. The future tense in English is created by using the helper verb will before the main verb of the sentence. For example, the future tense of the verb go is will go. To turn the sentence into a question, place the subject of the sentence after will. For example: Will you go?
The following table gives the future tense of the verb go.
| I | will go | 我会去 |
| you | will go | 你会去 / 你们会去 |
| he | will go | 他会去 |
| she | will go | 她会去 |
