is there an equivalent of "GOING TO (do something)" instead of "WILL(do something)" in german?
like in english when you say "I'M GOING TO"(do something) instead of "I WILL" (do something )

in other words, how would you say this phrases in german without using "werden ", is it possible?

1) i'm going to eat vegetables later today
2) she's going to train for the race
3) he's going to pass the test

i hope my question makes sense......thank you in advance!

Answer

It is possible but there isn't a different tense for the future. Instead you would use the present tense with the help of adverbs.

1) i'm going to eat vegetables later today  = Ich esse später Gemüse.
2) she's going to train for the race = Sie trainiert gleich für das Rennen.
3) he's going to pass the test = Er besteht bald den Test.
