Grammar: Making Sentences with Future Tense "Will" and "Shall"

Introduction: Future tense is used to talk about actions or events that will happen in the future.
In English, we often use the auxiliary verbs "will" and "shall" to indicate future actions.

Using "Will" 
   - "Will" is the most common auxiliary verb used to indicate future actions or events.
   - It is used with all subjects (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).
   - Example: "I will go to the market tomorrow."

Using "Shall":
   - "Shall" is less common than "will" and is typically used with the subjects "I" and "we" to indicate future actions or events.
   - It is often used for offers, suggestions, or promises.
   - Example: "We shall meet at the park this evening."
Formation of Sentences with will and shall : 

   - To form sentences with future tense, use the subject followed by "will" or "shall," and then the base form of the verb (infinitive).
   - Example:
     - "She will study for the exam."
     - "I shall visit my grandparents next weekend."

 Negative Sentences using will and shall 
   - To form negative sentences in future tense, use "will not" (won't) or "shall not" (shan't) before the base form of the verb.
   - Example:
     - "They will not attend the party."
     - "I shall not forget your birthday."
Questions used for will and shall 

   - To form questions in future tense, invert the subject and "will" or "shall."
   - Example:
     - "Will you go to the cinema with me?"
     - "Shall we start the meeting now?"
