Plans

We use 'going to' when we want to talk about a plan for the future.

I'm going to see him later today. They're going to a party next month. We're going to have lunch first. She's going to see what she can do. I'm not going to talk for very long. I’m going to buy a new house.

Intention

We use the special going to construction when we have the intention to do something before we speak. We have already made a decision before speaking. Look at these examples:

I have won $1,000. I am going to buy a new TV. We're not going to see my mother tomorrow. When are you going to go on holiday?

Prediction base don evidence

We often use going to to make a prediction about the future. Our prediction is based on present evidence. We are saying what we think will happen. Here are some examples:

The sky is very black. It's going to snow. It's 8.30! You're going to miss the train! I crashed the company car. My boss isn't going to be very happy!

We can replace 'going to go' by 'going'.

I'm going out later. She's going to the exhibition tomorrow.

Sometimes there is no real difference between an intention (going to) and a plan (present continuous). In this case, it doesn't matter which we use.

We're going to paint the bedroom tomorrow. We're painting the bedroom tomorrow.

We use the present continuous only when a plan exists before we speak. Look at these examples:

Mary is taking her music exam next year.

They can't play tennis with you tomorrow. They're working.

We're going to the theatre on Friday.
