Anonymous I can 't make sentences with confidence which of those phrases do I use, "be going to" and "will". That's because there is sometimes no significant difference between the two. Context and, in speech, word-stress are often at least as significant as the words themselves.

Hi fivejedjon,
Thank you for teaching me. Now I can understand. The conversation is not only based on to the letter, right?
I may have to a little more flexibility. thanks!

Hi Calif Jim,
Thank you for teaching me how to use the phrase and the word.. I understand what's your pointing at that out. When my mind is non-spontaneous, I use the phrase "be going to", and about a spontaneous decision I use the word "will", right?
Now I use those phrase and word with a confidence! Thank you!
