Hello, and welcome back to Daily English Speaking Podcast.
2
Hi, everyone.
3
We are very happy you are here with us today.
4
I'm Emma.
5
And I'm Jack.
6
We make videos to help you speak English every day.
7
Today, we are going to talk about something exciting, something that has not happened yet.
8
Our future.
9
What are you going to do tomorrow?
10
Where will you be next year?
11
What are your plans for the weekend?
12
These are simple questions, but sometimes answering them in English can feel difficult.
13
Maybe you want to say, Tomorrow I will visit my friend, but you're not sure how to make the sentence.
14
Or maybe you want to explain your plans, dreams, and goals, but you don't know whether to use will or going to.
15
That's exactly what we're going to practice today.
16
We'll learn how to talk about the future using simple English.
17
We'll practice will, going to, and some other natural ways to talk about future events.
18
And we'll use real conversations about work, family, travel, daily life, and personal dreams.
19
So don't worry about difficult grammar rules.
20
We'll explain everything with easy examples.
21
And we'll give you plenty of chances to speak with us.
22
Jack, can I ask you something? Of course.
23
What are you going to do after we finish recording today?
24
I'm going to make lunch.
25
That sounds nice.
26
What are you going to cook?
27
I think I'll make pasta.
28
Interesting.
29
You just used two different future expressions.
30
I did?
31
Yes.
32
First you said, I'm going to make lunch.
33
Right.
34
Then you said, I'll make pasta.
35
Oh, that's true.
36
And both sentences are correct.
37
So, what's the difference?
38
That's what we're going to discover today.
39
Great.
40
Let's start with will.
41
We often use will when we make a decision at the moment of speaking.
42
For example, imagine I'm sitting at home and suddenly feel hungry.
43
What would you say?
44
I'm hungry.
45
I'll make a sandwich.
46
Perfect.
47
I decided to make a sandwich just now.
48
Exactly.
49
Another example.
50
Imagine I hear someone knocking at the door.
51
What do you say?
52
I'll open the door.
53
Very natural.
54
Or imagine your friend is carrying heavy bags.
55
You can say, I'll help you.
56
Excellent.
57
Let's practice some short sentences with will.
58
I'll call you later.
59
I'll help you tomorrow.
60
I'll make dinner tonight.
61
I'll send you a message.
62
I'll be there soon.
63
I'll try my best.
64
Wonderful.
65
And remember, I'll is the short form of I will.
66
Exactly.
67
In everyday conversation, people often say I'll.
68
We can also say you'll instead of you will.
69
He'll instead of he will.
70
She'll instead of she will.
71
Will instead of we will.
72
And they'll instead of they will.
73
Let's use them in sentences.
74
You'll enjoy this movie.
75
He'll arrive tomorrow.
76
She'll call us later.
77
We'll meet on Saturday.
78
They'll be here soon.
79
Great job.
80
Now, Emma, let's practice a real conversation.
81
Sounds good.
82
Emma, I'm really thirsty.
83
I'll get you some water.
84
Thank you.
85
That's very kind.
86
You're welcome.
87
Oh, I forgot my notebook.
88
Don't worry.
89
I'll give you some paper.
90
Thanks.
91
You're helping me a lot today.
92
That's what friends are for.
93
Notice how Emma used I'll to offer help.
94
Exactly.
95
I'll get you some water.
96
I'll give you some paper.
97
We often use will when offering to do something.
98
Now let's talk about promises.
99
That's another common use of will.
100
Imagine you promise your friend something.
101
You can say, I'll call you tomorrow.
102
Or I'll always support you.
103
I'll be on time.
104
I'll never forget your birthday.
105
That's a very important promise, Jack.
106
Especially if you want to keep your friends happy.
107
Have you ever forgotten someone's birthday?
108
Maybe once.
109
Once?
110
Okay, perhaps twice.
111
Jack.
112
But I promise I'll remember next time.
113
There you go.
114
Another sentence with will.
115
Exactly.
116
Now let's practice making promises.
117
I'll do my homework.
118
I'll clean my room.
119
I'll arrive on time.
120
I'll help you with your project.
121
I'll call you when I get home.
122
Excellent.
123
Now, what about negative sentences?
124
Good question.
125
We use will not.
126
And the common short form is won't.
127
For example, I won't be late.
128
I won't forget.
129
She won't come tomorrow.
130
We won't stay long.
131
It won't take much time.
132
Let's practice a conversation.
133
Jack, are you going to be late for our meeting tomorrow?
134
No, I won't.
135
I'll arrive early.
136
Good.
137
And will you bring the documents?
138
Yes, I will.
139
Will you forget your notebook again?
140
No, I won't.
141
Are you sure?
142
I'll put it in my bag tonight.
143
Perfect.
144
Now let's learn how to ask questions with Will.
145
We usually put
146
Will before the subject.
147
For example, will you come tomorrow?
148
Will she join us?
149
Will it rain tonight? will they arrive soon will we have enough time
150
and we can give short answers yes I will no I won't yes she will no they won't let's practice
151
Jack will you work tomorrow yes I will will you cook dinner tonight yes
152
I will will you wake up at 5 tomorrow morning absolutely not so what's the Correct short answer.
153
No, I won't.
154
Excellent.
155
Now it's time for our listeners to practice.
156
Everyone answer these questions aloud.
157
Will you study English tomorrow?
158
You can say, yes, I will.
159
Or no, I won't.
160
Will you call a friend this week?
161
Will you watch a movie tonight?
162
Will you go shopping this weekend?
163
Will you practice English after this podcast?
164
We hope your answer to that last question is yes.
165
Me too.
166
Now let's talk about going to.
167
This is another very common way to talk about the future.
168
We often use going to when we have already decided on a plan or intention.
169
For example, I'm going to visit my parents this weekend.
170
That means you've already decided to visit them.
171
Exactly.
172
Another example.
173
I'm going to start exercising next week.
174
That's a plan.
175
Yes.
176
What about, we're going to travel next month?
177
Perfect.
178
That's another future plan.
179
Let's practice some sentences.
180
I'm going to study tonight.
181
I'm going to clean my room.
182
She's going to buy a new phone.
183
He's going to visit his grandparents.
184
We're going to watch a movie.
185
They're going to move to another city.
186
Wonderful.
187
Now, Emma, what are you going to do this weekend?
188
I'm going to visit my sister.
189
Nice.
190
What are you going to do together?
191
We're going to cook dinner and watch a movie.
192
Have you decided what to cook?
193
Yes.
194
We're going to make homemade pizza.
195
Oh, that sounds delicious.
196
What about you?
197
What are you going to do this weekend?
198
I'm going to clean my apartment.
199
The whole apartment?
200
Yes.
201
I've been putting it off all week. That sounds familiar.
202
After that, I'm going to meet my friend Daniel.
203
Where are you going to meet?
204
At a coffee shop near the park.
205
Sounds like a nice weekend.
206
I hope so.
207
Now let's practice the conversation about weekend plans.
208
I'll start.
209
Hey, Emma, do you have any plans for Saturday?
210
Yes, I'm going to visit my grandmother.
211
That's lovely.
212
Are you going to stay all day?
213
Probably.
214
We're going to have lunch together.
215
What are you going to do afterward?
216
I'm going to help her in the garden.
217
That sounds nice.
218
What about you?
219
Are you going to do anything special?
220
I'm going to play football with some friends.
221
Great.
222
What time are you going to play?
223
Around four in the afternoon. Have fun.
224
Thanks.
225
You too.
226
That was a natural conversation about future plans.
227
And notice how often we used going to.
228
Because we were talking about plans we had already made.
229
Now, let's look at negative sentences with going to.
230
We put not after the verb be.
231
For example, I'm not going to work tomorrow.
232
She's not going to travel this month.
233
We're not going to eat out tonight.
234
They're not going to buy a new car.
235
very good let's practice
236
Emma are you going to work on Sunday no I'm not I'm going to relax
237
Are you going to wake up early?
238
No, I'm not.
239
I'm going to sleep a little longer.
240
Are you going to cook breakfast?
241
Yes, I am.
242
What are you going to make?
243
Pancakes and fruit.
244
Can I come?
245
Jack, you're always thinking about food.
246
I can't help it.
247
Now let's practice questions with going to.
248
Are you going to study tonight?
249
Is she going to visit us?
250
Is he going to buy a car?
251
Are they going to travel?
252
Are we going to leave soon?
253
And we can answer with short responses.
254
Yes, I am.
255
No, I'm not.
256
Yes, she is.
257
No, they aren't.
258
Excellent.
259
Now, everyone, it's your turn.
260
Are you going to cook dinner tonight?
261
Are you going to study English tomorrow?
262
Are you going to visit your family this weekend?
263
Are you going to buy anything this week?
264
Are you going to learn a new skill this year?
265
Take your time and answer aloud.
266
Use complete sentences if you can.
267
For example, yes, I'm going to study English tomorrow.
268
Or no, I'm not going to travel this weekend.
269
Wonderful.
270
Now comes a very important question.
271
What's that?
272
What's the difference between will and going to?
273
Great question.
274
Because sometimes they seem very similar.
275
That's true.
276
Both can refer to the future, and sometimes both are possible.
277
So how do we choose?
278
Let's start with a simple example.
279
Okay.
280
Imagine you're sitting at home.
281
Your phone rings.
282
I answer it.
283
Your friend says, can you help me carry some boxes?
284
And I say, sure, I'll help you.
285
Exactly.
286
You made the decision at that moment.
287
Now imagine my friend called me yesterday.
288
And you already agreed to help today.
289
Then I can say, I'm going to help my friend move some boxes this afternoon.
290
Perfect.
291
That describes an existing plan.
292
So will often works for decisions made right now.
293
And going to often works for plans made earlier.
294
Let's practice another example.
295
Imagine you open the refrigerator and see there's no milk.
296
I say, I'll buy some milk.
297
Good.
298
You decided just now.
299
But if I already wrote milk on my shopping list, I can say, I'm going to buy milk after work.
300
Exactly.
301
That makes sense.
302
Now let's talk about predictions.
303
We can also use future forms to say what we think will happen.
304
For example, I think it will rain tomorrow.
305
Or I think you'll enjoy this movie.
306
I believe she will pass her exam.
307
I think our team will win.
308
These are predictions or opinions about the future.
309
What about going to?
310
We often use going to for predictions based on something we can see or know now.
311
Can you give an example?
312
Imagine you look outside and see very dark clouds.
313
I might say it's going to rain.
314
Exactly.
315
You can see evidence that rain is likely.
316
Another example?
317
Imagine someone is carrying too many books and the books are starting to fall.
318
Oh no, they're going to drop those books.
319
Perfect.
320
So both forms can make predictions, but the situation can help us choose.
321
Exactly.
322
And remember, these are useful patterns, not rules that cover every possible sentence.
323
That's helpful.
324
Let's practice predictions.
325
I think tomorrow will be a good day.
326
I believe you'll do well.
327
Look at those clouds.
328
It's going to rain. Be careful.
329
You're going to fall.
330
I think this movie will be interesting.
331
She's studied a lot.
332
I think she'll pass.
333
Excellent.
334
Now, Jack, let's talk about our future dreams.
335
I love this topic.
336
Where do you think you'll be in five years?
337
That's a big question.
338
Take your time.
339
I hope I'll be doing work that I enjoy.
340
That's a wonderful goal.
341
I also hope I'll travel to some new countries. Which countries?
342
I'd love to visit
343
Japan and Italy.
344
Why those countries?
345
Because I'm interested in their cultures, history, and food.
346
Especially food.
347
You know me well.
348
What about your personal goals?
349
I'm going to keep learning new skills.
350
That's great.
351
And I'm going to spend more time exercising.
352
Have you already made a plan?
353
Yes.
354
I'm going to walk every morning before work.
355
That's a good start.
356
What about you?
357
What do you hope to do in five years?
358
I hope I'll have more opportunities to travel and meet new people.
359
That's exciting.
360
I'm also going to continue improving my teaching skills.
361
Why is that important to you?
362
Because I love helping people learn.
363
And you're very good at it.
364
Thank you, Jack.
365
You're welcome.
366
Now let's practice talking about dreams and goals.
367
I hope I'll have a good job.
368
I think I'll be happier in the future.
369
I'm going to learn a new language.
370
I'm going to save money.
371
I want to travel more.
372
I hope I'll achieve my goals.
373
I'm going to work hard.
374
I believe things will get better.
375
Wonderful.
376
Now let's learn another useful future form.
377
There's another one?
378
Yes.
379
We can use the present continuous to talk about future arrangements.
380
Can you give an example?
381
I'm meeting my friend tomorrow.
382
But meeting looks like the present continuous.
383
It is.
384
But here it refers to a future arrangement.
385
So you've already arranged to meet your friend.
386
Exactly.
387
What about, I'm visiting my parents on Sunday?
388
Perfect.
389
We're having dinner with friends tonight.
390
Excellent.
391
She's flying to London next week.
392
Very good.
393
They're moving into a new apartment next month.
394
Exactly.
395
So we can use the present continuous for planned future arrangements.
396
Yes, especially when the arrangement is already organized.
397
Let's practice a conversation.
398
Jack, are you doing anything tomorrow evening?
399
Yes, I'm meeting Daniel for dinner.
400
Where are you meeting?
401
At a restaurant downtown.
402
What time are you meeting? At 7.
403
Sounds nice.
404
What about you?
405
Are you doing anything tomorrow?
406
I'm visiting my parents in the afternoon.
407
Are you staying for dinner?
408
Yes, we're having dinner together.
409
Wonderful.
410
Notice how natural these sentences sound.
411
I'm meeting Daniel.
412
I'm visiting my parents.
413
We're having dinner together.
414
Great.
415
Now let's compare three sentences.
416
Okay.
417
I'll call Sarah.
418
That could be a decision I'm making now.
419
I'm going to call Sarah.
420
That can describe my existing intention.
421
I'm calling Sarah at 6.
422
That can describe an arranged call at a particular time.
423
Very clear.
424
And in real conversations, these forms sometimes overlap.
425
We shouldn't be afraid if more than one form is possible.
426
Exactly.
427
The important thing is understanding what we want to communicate.
428
Now let's talk about schedules.
429
That's another useful future topic.
430
Sometimes we use the present simple for scheduled events.
431
For example, the train leaves at 8 tomorrow.
432
The movie starts at 7 tonight.
433
My class begins at 9 on Monday.
434
The bus arrives at 6 .30.
435
These sentences refer to future events on a timetable or schedule.
436
So we don't always need will to talk about the future.
437
Exactly.
438
That's interesting.
439
Let's practice.
440
Emma, what time does your English class start tomorrow?
441
It starts at 10 in the morning.
442
What time does it finish?
443
It finishes at 11 .30.
444
And what time does your bus leave?
445
It leaves at 9 .15.
446
Perfect.
447
Now let's move to something very practical.
448
Making plans with friends?
449
Exactly.
450
Great.
451
Let's imagine we're planning a weekend trip.
452
I'll start.
453
Jack, are you free this Saturday?
454
I think so.
455
Why?
456
I'm going to visit a beautiful lake outside the city.
457
That sounds interesting.
458
Would you like to come?
459
Sure.
460
I think it'll be fun.
461
Great.
462
We're leaving at 8 in the morning.
463
8?
464
That's early.
465
We want to arrive before it gets crowded.
466
Okay, I'll set my alarm.
467
Good idea.
468
What are we going to do there?
469
We're going to walk around the lake and have a picnic.
470
Sounds wonderful.
471
I'll bring some sandwiches.
472
Perfect.
473
I'll bring fruit and water.
474
What if it rains?
475
We'll check the weather forecast on Friday.
476
Good plan.
477
And if the weather is bad, we'll choose another day.
478
Excellent.
479
Did you notice how many future forms we used?
480
Yes.
481
I'm going to visit a late...
482
We're leaving at...
483
I'll set my alarm.
484
I'll bring fruit.
485
If the weather is bad, we'll choose another day.
486
All of them are useful in real life.
487
Now let's talk about future plans at work.
488
Another important situation.
489
Imagine your manager asks, what are you going to work on tomorrow?
490
You need to explain your plans clearly.
491
Let's practice.
492
Jack, what are your plans for tomorrow morning?
493
I'm going to finish my report.
494
When will you send it?
495
I'll send it before lunch.
496
Are you attending the team meeting?
497
Yes, the meeting starts at 2.
498
Great.
499
Will you prepare the presentation?
500
Yes, I will.
501
I'm going to work on it this afternoon.
502
Perfect.
503
That was a natural workplace conversation.
504
And it's useful for students, too.
505
Let's imagine a student talking about tomorrow.
506
Okay.
507
Emma, what are you going to do after school?
508
I'm going to finish my homework.
509
Are you studying for your English test?
510
Yes.
511
I'm meeting my classmate at the library.
512
What time are you meeting? At four.
513
Do you think the test will be difficult?
514
Maybe, but I think I'll do well if I prepare.
515
Great attitude.
516
Thank you.
517
Now let's talk about the future with when and if.
518
This is very useful for everyday conversations.
519
Let's start with when.
520
We can say, when I get home, I'll call you.
521
Interesting.
522
We say get, not will get.
523
Exactly.
524
After when in this kind of future time sentence, we usually use the present simple.
525

526
Perfect.
527
When she arrives, we'll eat dinner.
528
Excellent.
529
When I have time, I'll visit you.

531

532
We can say, if it rains, I'll stay home.
533
If I'm tired, I'll go to bed early.
534
If I have enough money, I'll buy a new laptop.
535
If you practice every day, you'll improve.

538
Let's practice a conversation.
539

560
What do you mean?
561
Things we want to start doing regularly.
562
Oh, like exercising every morning?
563
Exactly.
564
Or studying English for 20 minutes every day.
565
Let's imagine we're talking about healthy habits.
566
Jack, are you going to make any changes to your daily routine?
567
Yes.
568
I'm going to start waking up earlier.
569
Why?
570
Because I want more time in the morning.
571
What will you do with that extra time?
572
I'll exercise, prepare breakfast, and plan my day.
573
That sounds like a great idea.
574
What about you?
575
I'm going to spend less time on my phone before bed.
576
That's a good goal.
577
I think I'll sleep better if I stop looking at my phone so late.
578
I agree.
579
Let's practice talking about future habits.
580
I'm going to exercise more.
581

588
I love challenges.
589
I'm going to give you a situation and you choose a natural future sentence.
590
Ready.
591

593
Perfect.
594
My turn.
595

606

607

608
Someone asks, can you help me?
609

610

611
Now let's make the challenge a little harder.
612
I'm ready.
613

622
You have a dentist appointment tomorrow at 3.
623
I'm seeing the dentist tomorrow at 3.
624
Very good.
625
See?
626
Future grammar becomes easier when we connect it to real situations.
627
That's why practicing conversations is so helpful.
628
Now, Jack, I want to ask you something more personal.
629
Go ahead.
630
What is one thing you hope will happen in your life next year?
631
I hope I'll become more confident in trying new things.
632
That's a wonderful goal.
633
Sometimes I spend too much time thinking about what could go wrong.
634
I understand.
635
Next year, I'm going to take more opportunities to learn and grow.
636
I like that.
637
What about you?
638
I hope I'll spend more time doing things that make me happy.
639
Such as?
640
Traveling, reading, spending time with family, and learning new skills.
641
That sounds lovely.
642
And I'm going to make a plan instead of only dreaming about it.
643
That's important.
644
Because dreams become more useful when we turn them into actions.
645
Exactly.
646
Now let's practice talking about hopes.
647
I hope I'll find a good job.
648
I hope I'll travel next year.

651
I hope things will go well.
652
I hope I'll achieve my goals.

655
I'm worried I'll be late.
656
I'm afraid I won't have enough time.
657
I don't think I'll finish everything today.
658
I'm not sure if I'll be ready.
659
These are natural expressions.
660
And it's okay to talk about both hopes and worries.
661
Exactly.
662
The future can feel exciting and uncertain at the same time.
663
Now let's practice a conversation about future worries.
664
Jack, you look a little nervous.
665
What's wrong?
666
I have an important presentation tomorrow.
667
Are you worried about it?
668
A little.

677
I'm going to practice for another 30 minutes.
678
Good.
679
And make sure you get enough sleep.
680
I will.
681
See?
682
That conversation used several future expressions naturally.
683
I'll forget.
684
You'll do a great job.
685
I'm going to practice.
686
I will.
687
Excellent.
688

728

729
I'm not sure yet.
730

855

857
Excellent.
858
Now let's review everything with one final challenge.
859
This is the big one.
860
We'll give you different situations.
861
And you can try to make a future sentence.
862
Situation one.
863
You decide right now to make some tea.
864
I'll make some tea.
865

Situation 10.
890
You want to explain what you'll do if you have free time.
891
If I have free time, I'll read a book.
892
Wonderful.
893
And now, everyone, make three sentences about your own future.
894
One sentence using will.
895
One sentence using going to.
896
And one sentence using the present continuous for a future arrangement.
897
For example, I'll call my friend tonight.
898
I'm going to study English tomorrow.
899
I'm meeting my cousin on Saturday.
900
Great job.
901
Now, Emma, before we finish, I want to ask you one final question.
902
Go ahead.
903
What is one thing you promise yourself you'll do in the future?
904
That's a beautiful question.
905
Take your time.
906
I promise myself that I'll keep learning and growing.
907
I love that.
908
I'm also going to spend more time doing things that make me happy.
909
That's important.
910
What about you?
911
I promise myself that I'll stop waiting for the perfect moment to try new things.
912
That's a wonderful promise.
913
Sometimes we wait because we're afraid of making mistakes.
914
That's true.
915
But the future doesn't become better just because we think about it.
916
We also need to take action.
917
Exactly.
918
And that applies to learning English, too.
919
You can say, I'll practice tomorrow.
920
But it's even better to make a clear plan.
921
I'm going to practice English for 15 minutes every morning.
922
That's a practical goal.
923
And if you follow your plan, you'll improve over time.
924
Remember, you don't need to learn everything in one day.
925
Start with simple future sentences.
926
Talk about tomorrow.
927
Talk about your weekend.
928
Talk about your plans.
929
Talk about your dreams.
930
And talk about the future you want to create.
931
Every sentence you speak helps build your confidence.
932
Before we say goodbye, let's review our most important examples.
933
I'll help you.
934

I think it'll rain.
943
Look at those clouds.

It's going to rain.
945
If I have time, I'll help you.
946
When I get home, I'll call you.
947
I hope I'll achieve my goals.
948
I'm going to keep practicing English.
949
Excellent.
950
These expressions will help you speak naturally about future plans, decisions, promises, and predictions.
951
And remember, it's okay if you don't remember every rule immediately.
952
Keep listening, repeating, and practicing.
953
Over time, these sentences will become more familiar.
954
And you'll start using them without thinking so much about grammar?
955
That's our goal.
956
To help you speak English with more confidence every day.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
