To start our discussion, let’s break down the grammar of going to. When using going to, we use the subject “I” and then follow it with “am going to” in the positive form, or “am not going to” in the negative form. We then use the infinitive form of the verb, also known as the base form of the verb. For example, “I’m going to visit my family” or “I’m not going to go on vacation.”

When to use the going to future tense grammar pattern? Simple. Use it for plans that have been decided before the conversation. It can also be used for strong decisions made during the conversation. The key point is that the plan has to have been made before the conversation. So, whether you made a decision to visit your family, or chose not to go on vacation, make sure to use going to to express your plans.

Now, let’s take a look at some examples of using going to when discussing holiday plans:

– “I’m going to visit my family.”
– “I’m not going to go on a vacation.”
– “I’m going to take time off work.”

Each of these sentences follows the structure of using “I’m going to” or “I’m not going to” followed by the verb in its base form. For example, “visit,” “go,” and “take.”

By understanding and applying this simple grammar point, you can effectively convey your holiday plans to others. So next time you’re asked, “What are you going to do during the holiday?” You can confidently respond using the going to future tense grammar pattern.

As discussed previously, we will also review how to use “will” and expressions you can use if you have no plans in parts two and three of this article. So stay tuned for the upcoming parts to learn more about expressing your future holiday plans using different grammar points.
