All of them are correct but with slightly different meaning.
I would not buy that flat. How will I know?
I want to buy a new watch but want to use this to my advantage.
- Why buying a flat.
- I’m not buying a flat!
So, if you want to emphasize your unwillingness to buy it and decision on not to buy it you could use this phrasing.
I am not going to go buy that flat. How about I just move to the west?
In this case Sie’re sure you won’t buy it, for example somebody asks you and you reply conveying the fact that you already decided, maybe you already found a better one.
- Has anyone still bought a flat?
- I have. I cannot imagine anything. I am not a perfectionist. I don’t know why! I’m not going to buy it, I found a better one.
The second is the simple future.
I won’t buy flat. I own a 3 bedroom flat.
With this you declare a future intention, but it doesn’t have the same certainty behind it as the “going to” I am trying to find a flat and I think its my budget. That will just keep me from buying it. I will buy it and so I decide there. what should I do?
Can you read a summary of what you
read about this here. I love dragon. But first I couldn’t make it this great. I just started.

It’s not that straightforward either. The word cure is way too general. Why? If you have e.g. an MBAT, why don’t you just watch? How can we cure an infection if it is causing an infection?
in case of chronic diseases, especially with many types of cancer often you can’t get rid of the cause or reverse the damage. Is treatment permanent? In many cases you’d need to rewrite the DNA to remove that possibility. Many are able to recover from e.g. coma. With osteosarcoma but damage to the bones are sometimes too severe and even amputation may be necessary, and the possibility of recurrence is never zero. I lost my leg. I don’t think any evidence of cancer is present. Now to make sure that I am not cured. What are some possible ways to stop cancer?
I simply cannot use the word cure because it doesn’t imply anything about a certain treatment’s effectiveness. It’s just a safer way to phrase things. Who is to raise false hopes, especially when the media can’t control things, and blow things out of proportions if one has nothing to show for it? How can one claim that “We’re working on a cure for acute lymphoblastic leukemia and it seems promising” can result in headlines saying “New Cure for Cancer Found” in newspapers all around the globe, then staying cautious about how they phrase things is very
important.
