Basics: Using Will for Decisions, Promises, and Offers

While there are many ways to talk about the future in English, the modal verb will has three very specific everyday uses. We use it for making spontaneous decisions at the moment of speaking ("I'll have the salad, please"), making promises ("I will return your jacket tomorrow"), and offering help ("I'll carry those bags for you").

In this challenge, you will practice identifying and applying will across these common situations. You'll navigate practical scenarios like ordering food at a restaurant or cafe, promising to keep a party secret, and offering to help someone with heavy boxes or office folders.

You will work through 10 questions in a variety of formats, including single-choice, drop-down, drag-and-drop, and multi-choice, to help you master these foundational future forms.
