will + infinitive

|---|---|---|
| I you he she it we they |
will (= 'll) will not (= won't) |
go watch stay have become ... |
| Question | ||

go...? watch...? stay...? have...? become...? ... |
Examples

You won't eat it.
It will probably rain in the afternoon.
Will they help us?
I will = I shall, we will = we shall
We can say "I shall" or "we shall". It is the same as "will". Note that we do not use "shall" with other persons: you/he/she/it/they will.
I shall be hungry by two o'clock. = I will be hungry by two o'clock.
We shall always be together. = We will always be together.
But
Jason will go on holiday in summer.
