    The document discusses the form and function of the "going to" future tense in English. It notes that "going to" has nothing to do with literally going, and provides examples of its use to indicate certainty about future events. It outlines the positive and negative forms for statements and questions using "going to" with different subjects. The key points are that "going to" expresses certainty about future actions and it is different from the "will" future which implies possible rather than definite future events.
