  30. Four basic ways to talk about future plans/voluntary actions:
  31.  
  32. 1) I will meet with him tomorrow.
  33. = I am making this decision right now. (+ offers/promises)
  34.  
  35. 2) I'm going to meet with him tomorrow.
  36. = I had a prior plan before saying this. (the plan might be only in my mind)
  37. = I made this decision before now.
  38. 3) I am meeting with him tomorrow.
  39. = I had a prior plan and communicated with him about it.
  40. = I made the decision and arrangements before now.
  41. 4) I meet with him tomorrow.
  42. = One instance of a routine (e.g. We meet every Friday.)
  43. = It's on a schedule. We've made an appointment for it.
  44. = I made the decision, arrangements, and a schedule.
  45. ---
  46. Two ways to talk about future predictions (involuntary):
  47.  
  48. 1) It will rain later.
  49.  
  50. 2) It's going to rain later.
  51. = More certain, especially if I have evidence right now, such as dark clouds and thunder.
  52. ---
  53. When I get home, I will cook dinner.
  54. (NOT: "When I will get home")
  55. - We don't use future grammer ("will" or "going to") in time clauses, even when they are about future events.
  56. ---
  57. I will be living in Boston.
  58. I'm going to be living in Boston.
  59.  
  60. I will have been teaching for 10 years.
  61. I'm going to have been teaching for 10 years.
  62.  
  63. - With progressive and perfect tenses, there is not much of a difference between "will" and "be going to".

  67. ADJECTIVE CLAUSES
  68. -----------------
  69. clause: a group of words with a subject and a verb
  70. adjective: a word that modifies or describes a noun
  71.  
  72. adjective clause: a clause that modifies or describes a noun
  73.  
  74. Give this message to whoever calls.
  75. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - noun clause
  76.  
  77. Give this message to the next person who calls.
  78. adjective clause - ^^^^^^^^^
  79. (it gives more information about "person")
  80.  
  81. Robert DeNiro, who is acting in a new movie, will be here.
  82. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  83. (it gives more information about "Robert DeNiro")
  84. (this information does not identify the noun, because we already know his name)
  85.  
  86. I like all of my students who come on time.
  87. = I like some of my students (I like only the few who come on time).
  88. "who come on time" is an IDENTIFYING adjective clause
  89.  
  90. I like all of my students, who come on time.
  91. = I like all of my students (all of them come on time).
  92. "who come on time" is a NON-IDENTIFYING adjective clause
  93.  
  94. identifying = defining = restrictive
  95. non-identifying = non-defining = non-restrictive
