"I will always love you! I'll never leave you!"
Have you heard that before? It's easy to make a promise!
We use 'will + infinitive' for many different reasons. You use it quite often to talk about the future but we also use it when we want to promise to do something.
My son: "I will finish all my homework and I won't play xbox tonight."
The waitress: "I'll bring you the drinks after I take your order. It won't be long."
Listen to this song. The singer makes 4 promises using will / won't. Can you hear what they are?
Difficult: no lyrics
Easy: listen with words
Now when you listen to other songs, see if you can hear any promises using 'will'.
Answers: I'll stand by you. (I) won't let nobody hurt you. I'll never desert you. You won't be on your own.
