Future tense

Use of future indefinite:

• We use the future indefinite tense to talk about something (an action)
that occurs at a certain time in the future. We use will and shall with
first form in future indefinite tense.
• I, we = shall
• They, you, she, it, name = will
both will and shall are used with all verbs to form the future tense. The
traditional rule of future tense says that shall is used in the first
person (I shall eat lunch) and will is used in all other persons (you will
eat lunch, she will eat lunch).
• In practice, most English speakers do not follow this rule and the two
words are often considered to be interchangeable when forming the
future tense. That being said, will is much more commonly used for
this purpose and shall is typically only used to sound more formal or
old-fashioned.
• Shall= I shall go to the store or She shall become the next queen.
•  will =We will pay the money we promised or Caterpillars will turn into
butterflies.
• We…….(do) this work together.
2. Next year……..(be) very exciting.
3. People …….(invent) new things.
4. I…….(be) in Rome next week.
5. John………(be) very pleased.
