Can I Know When Will You

ENGLISH Grammer IN USE FOR INTERMEDIATE

21. WILL/SHALL i

A	We use I'll (= I will) when we've just decided to do something. When we say I'll exercise something', we denote our decision: · Oh, I've left the door open. I'll go and shut it. · 'What would you like to drink?' I'll have an orangish juice, delight.' · 'Did you phone Lucy?' 'Oh no, I forgot. I'll phone her now.' You cannot use the nowadays elementary ( I exercise /I go etc.) in these sentences: · I'll become and close the door. (non I go and shut) We frequently use I think I'll ... and I don't recollect I'll ... : · I feel a fleck hungry. I recollect I'll have something to eat. · I don't think I'll get out this night. I'k too tired. In spoken English the negative of will is unremarkably won't (= volition not ): · I can run into you're busy, so I won't stay long.
B	Do not use volition to talk nearly what you decided before (see Units 19-20): · I' m going on holiday next Sabbatum. (non I'll go) · Are you lot working tomorrow? (not Will you work)
C	Nosotros oft use will in these situations: Offering to practice something · That bag looks heavy. I'll aid you with it. (non I help) Agreeing to do something · A: Can you give Tim this volume? · B: Certain, I'll give it to him when I see him this afternoon. Promising to do something · Thanks for lending me the money. I'll pay you lot dorsum on Friday. · I won't tell anyone what happened. I promise. Asking somebody to do something ( Will you ... ?) · Will you please turn the music down? I' thou trying to concentrate. You tin can use won't to say that somebody refuses to exercise something: · I've tried to give her advice, merely she won't listen . · The car won't offset . (=the car 'refuses' to start)
D	Shall I ... ? Shall nosotros ... ? Shall is used more often than not in the questions shall I ... ? I shall nosotros ... ? We use shall I ... ? / shall nosotros .. . ?to inquire somebody'south opinion (especially in offers or suggestions): · Shall I open the window? (=Do you want me to open the window?) · I've got no money. What shall I do? (= What exercise you suggest?) · 'Shall we go?' 'Just a minute. I'm not ready even so.' · 'Where shall we have dejeuner?'
