Hi everyone, I hope you all had a nice weekend. Today, I am going to talk about the verb:
WILL
This verb is often contracted in everyday English, most textbooks teach the basic contractions such as
I will ---------> I'll (AYul)
You will ---------> You'll (Yul)
He will ----------> He'll (Hill)
and so on. BUT there are many other times when will is contracted. They are used in casual English to speak faster and more smoothly so they will help you sound more natural to native speakers.
When will --------> When'll (whennul)
When'll he be ready?
What will ---------> What'll (whaddul)
What'll you do tomorrow?
Where will --------> Where'll (wherrul)
Where'll we meet?
Who will ----------> Who'll (whoul)
Who'll you go to the party with?
Why will ----------> Why'll (whyul, sounds like while)
Why'll you do that?
How will ----------> How'll (howul)
How'll you get there?
Actually, will can be contracted and joined to almost any word--it usually sounds like UL.
How long'll it take?
How longul it take?
Philip'll call you back later.
Philippul call you back later.
Don't worry, your dog'll come back.
Don't worry, your dogul come back.
Ok that is all for now, have a nice week!
Phil
