My doubts about the future What about the future? I don’t finish to understand the exact difference between “will” and “be going to”. I read on the Grammar Section of the Cambridge Dictionary that “be going to” is used in informal style for to talk about intentions, to make predictions or give commands, but that “will” is used in a similar way but with absolute certainty. This is very clear for me. But then, I also read, in other web site (not too formal), that the use of “will” is for spontaneous plans. I think that, maybe, they want to say that people makes spontaneous plans all the time and believes that they will do it with absolute certainty so, they use “will” in these cases, like certainty predictions because at this moment is not possible, maybe, take in mind all possible variables. So, is easiest to say “I will do that”. By example, someone could say “I will have a baby” instead of “I’m going to have a baby” because who wants think that it would be impossible to achieve.

My notes about some basic tenses The simple present is something that I do always, like walk, hike, teach, research, etc., while the present continuous is something that I’m doing in this exactly moment, like write this text, by example. The simple past (or preterite) is something that I did in an exact moment in the past, like buying a book, while the past continuous is something that I was doing in a continuous way but in the past, not now, like play drums, or work at DGK, a Software Company. However, I don’t understand so good the difference between past continuous and present perfect when the present perfect is simple. I understand that the present perfect is a continuity between the past and the present. I understand that the present perfect is something that I started in the past, I was doing that for a time, and I think (but I’m not sure about this), when is simple, I finished that before talking about that, but when is continuous, I keep doing that while I’m talking about that. By example, I started to think about travel around five months ago. I kept think about travelling. Then, two scenarios are possible: 1. I keep thinking about the travel right now; 2. I’m not thinking about the travel right now because I decided don’t think never more. Now, I want do that travel and I will do it. In the first case, I suppose that it’s an example of present perfect continuous: I have been thinking about travelling (and I keep thinking yet about that). And, in the second case, I suppose that it’s an example of present perfect (simple): I have thought about travelling (but now, I’m going to travel).
