Future tenses
There are several different ways in
English that you can talk about the
future. This page is an introduction to
the most important ones:
 Predictions/statements of fact
(Prediksi / pernyataan fakta)
 Intentions (Niat)
 Arrangements (Pengaturan/Rencana)
 Scheduled events (Acara terjadwal)
 Predictions/statements of fact (Prediksi / pernyataan
fakta)

The auxiliary verb will is used in making predictions or

simple statements of fact about the future.
1. The sun will rise at 6.30 tomorrow.
2. Lunch break today will be 10 minutes longer than usual.
3. In the year 2050 all students will have their own
computers in school.
4. If you help me, I will help you.
5. Do you think she will come soon?
6. You won't pass your exams if you don't start working
harder.
7. I know my parents won't let me go to the party.
8. Will it snow for Christmas?
9. I know she's sick, but will she be back in school
 Intentions (Niat)
The auxiliary verb going to is used in talking about intentions. (An intention is a plan
for the future that you have already thought about.)
1. We're going to buy a new car next month.
2. I'm going to work in a bank when I leave school.
3. In the new year I'm going to stop eating so much junk.
4. He's not going to go to the dance. He's got too much work.
5. I'm not going to watch TV until my science project is finished.
6. Are you going to play basketball after school?
7. What are you going to have for lunch today?
Note: going to is often used in the past tense to talk about an unfulfilled intention.
Examples: I was going to study for my grammar test, but I had no time. / He was
going to call you, but he couldn't find his mobile phone. / My grandmother was going
to visit us, but she fell and broke her arm.
 Arrangements (Pengaturan/Rencana)
The present continuous tense is used in talking about arrangements. (An
arrangement is is a plan for the future that you have already thought about
and discussed with someone else.)
1. I'm meeting my mother at the airport tomorrow.
2. Our grandparents are visiting us this Christmas.
3. Sorry, I can't stay after school today; I'm playing tennis with Jun-Sik.
4. My sister's going to the dentist tomorrow.
5. I'm not returning home for the holidays, so I can come to your party
after all!
6. Are you doing anything on Sunday morning?
7. Do you know if he is going to the dance with Maiko next week?
Scheduled events (Acara terjadwal)
The present simple tense is usually used to refer to
future events that are scheduled (and outside of our
control).
1. Hurry up! The train departs in 10 minutes.
2. I leave Frankfurt at 5 o'clock in the morning and
arrive in New York
3. at midnight the next day. She has an
appointment with the headmaster after school
today.
4. There's no need to hurry. The train doesn't
leave for another 30 minutes.
5. When does the meeting begin?
The FUTURE TENSE indicates that an action is in the future relative to the speaker or
writer. There are no inflected forms for the future in English (nothing like those -ed or
-s endings in the other tenses). Instead, the future tense employs the helping verbs will
or shall with the base form of the verb:
1. She will leave soon.
2. We shall overcome.

The future is also formed with the use of a form of "go" plus the infinitive of the verb:
3. He is going to faint.

English can even use the present to suggest the future tense:
4. I am leaving later today."

Note that the auxiliary will can be combined with "be" and a progressive form of the
main verb to create a sense of the future that does not harbor any hint of insistence
(which is possible with the auxiliary alone). For instance, if stress is placed on the word
will in "When will you arrive?", the sentence can sound impatient, insistent. In "When
will you be arriving?" there is less of that emotional overtone.
Shall
a. Shall digunakan untuk I dan we. dan Shall digunakan untuk
menyatakan suatu rencana.
Contoh:
•We shall return the books this week end. ( Kami akan
mengembalikan buku-buku ini akhir pekan ini. )
•I shall not text you tonight. ( Aku tidak akan SMS kamu nanti
malam. )

b. Dalam kalimat tanya, shall digunakan untuk memberikan

saran.
Contoh:
•It is too hot here. Shall I open the window? ( Di sini panas sekali.
Bagaimana jika aku membuka jendelanya? )
•You shall ask me if I want this food. ( Kamu sebaiknya bertanya
padaku apakah aku mau makanan ini. )
