Is this OK to say: “I hope you will.”?
I'm writing an email. Is it grammatically correct to write “I hope you will.” or should I use a verb after will?
Thank you very much!

'I hope you will' only makes sense if it comes immediately after the statement that it refers to. For example, if your friend says 'I think I'll pass the test', you could respond, 'I hope you will.'
In one side of a communication, like an email, it would only work if it were an echo of the previous sentence. For example 'I had a great time on the course. I hope you will, too.'
