Discussion Groups / ESL Teaching / December 2003questions about future
What is the difference in meaning between: When do you go to London ? When are you going to London? > What is the difference in meaning between: > > When do you go to London ? This is usually a question about regular activity, but it can also occasionally refer to the future, particularly if it refers to a timetable. > When are you going to London? This refers to arrangements for the future. When both forms refer to the future there is often only a slight difference between them - the present simple emphasises the timetable aspect more and the present continuous emphasises the arrangement more. People would more usually use the present continuous. Regards, Einde O'Callaghan |
