Grammar

going to do / will do / will be doing

Hi people!

I was wondering what the difference is between these 3 sentences:

1. Tomorrow, we are going to send you the rest of the files.

2. Tomorrow, we will send you the rest of the files.

3. Tomorrow,we will be sending you the rest of the files.

If you want a little bit of (physical) context, here it is:

- working environment.

- the words were written by employees of an Argentine company to their colleagues in New York.

Thanks a lot!

Mara.

Hi Mara,

In practice, there is not a huge difference between these.

1. Tomorrow, we are going to send you the rest of the files.A statement of a plan.

2. Tomorrow, we will send you the rest of the files. Either a slightly more casual statement, or a very strong statement of a 'fact'.
