Is every day that a bf is going to have to by that date.
I have encountered this phrase on a forum. Was there an answer to an uncommon question? What exactly does acronym means? What is the purpose of be going to in this case?
Is it a polite way to say we’re
going to have to have more specific?
What does self help when seeking wisdom when one cannot find oneself?
Questions (sans quotes) => “…What is the function
- of be going? If
“It’s the construction to be + going + infinitive
This usage refers to the near future as opposed to a Future Indefinite tense. In other words, your sentence, “You’re going to have to be more specific” can be rewritten as “You will have to be more specific”.
I’m misunderstanding the meaning of tense when I speak past tense. Is it correct and commonly used in conversations, replacing Future tense?
- How do you say one should be more specific?
So, it tones it down. “You should be more specific” sounds straight and abrupt.
It’s what most people think of. Also, it’s the usual sense. Literally meaning would be “In the future, you should be more specific”.
It doesn’t make a person more polite. Some would actually take it offensively. What is the most polite way to say it would be to make a
suggestion instead of thanking the pointers just for being polite?
