El tiempo futuro simple

El futuro simple se usa para referirse a acciones o estados que comienzan y terminan en el futuro.
Estos eventos aún no han sucedido, pero sucederán en algún momento en el futuro. Para ello,
tenemos dos formas de referirnos a estos eventos: mediante el auxiliar will y mediante la
combinación del verbo to be + going to (voy a hacer).

La estructura es la siguiente para el aux will:

AFF Subject + AUX (will) + verbo infinitivo + complemento

I will meet her at the mall.

NEG Sujeto + AUX (will not; won’t) + verbo infinitivo + complemento

The lions will not eat lettuce.

INT AUX (Will) + sujeto + verbo infinitivo + complemento +?

I will read the newspaper from tomorrow.

NEG INT 1 AUX (Will) + sujeto + not + verbo infinitivo + complemento +?

Will I not read the newspaper from tomorrow?

NEG INT 2 AUX (Won’t) + sujeto + verbo infinitivo + complemento +?

Won’t I read the newspaper from tomorrow?

Mientras que para la combinación to be + going to, es muy similar:

AFF Subject + to be + going to + verbo infinitivo + complemento

I am going to meet her at the mall.

NEG Sujeto + to be + going to + verbo infinitivo + complemento

The lions aren’t going to eat right now.

INT to be + sujeto + going to + verbo infinitivo + complemento +?

Am I going to read the news?
