Se foloseste infinitivul scurt al verbului de conjugat precedat de verbul auxiliar will (cateodata shall la pers sing si pl)
Se foloseste :
- exprima anticiparea unei actiuni sau stari
It will rain tomorrow.
Maine va ploua.
Will in asemenea contexte are valoare neutra, exprimand doar ideea de viitor si nu aceea de vointa, transmisa de verbul modal will.
- exprima o intentie in viitor sau o decizie pentru viitor luata in momentul vorbirii, nu existenta anterior in mintea vorbitorului
Oh, you can get it! Wait a minute, I’ll help you…….
Ah, nu poti ajunge s-o/sa-l iei! Asteapta o clipa, te voi ajuta…..
Shall, auxiliarul pentru persoana I sing. si pl. este folosit in limbajul oficial, in vorbirea curenta preferandu-se will.
- propozitiile interogative cu will la pers. a II-â pot exprima o rugaminte
Will you help me lift the chair?
Vrei sa ma ajuti sa ridic scaunul?
- propozitiile interogative cu shall exprima fiw o oferta (Shall I go there for you?) fie cererea unui sfat (Where shall I go?)
