$LESSON 1-3: Future Plans — The Present Progressive

# Source: ST §Ted's Leaving Tomorrow (+ light talk-through)
$GRAMMAR Ted's Leaving Tomorrow
ID: l1-s11
INTRO: In this part you'll learn a very common way to talk about the future: "I'm leaving tomorrow." Present progressive form, future meaning — for plans that are already made.

The present progressive (I'm studying, you're reading, etc.) is sometimes used to express a future action which is expected to happen soon.

All three of these sentences point to the future:

| The plane | will arrive | at 6:00. |
|---|---|---|
| The plane | is going to arrive | at 6:00. |
| The plane | **is arriving** | **at 6:00.** |

Say it: {The plane is arriving at 6:00.}
