soheil1And what's the difference between "shall" and "will" above?I'm not sure there is one. British speakers tend to use them interchangeably. Americans rarely use shall, except in legal contexts, where it indicates that something is required.

In the American legal context, there would be little difference, if any, in their meanings.
In British usage, shall doesn't have the same sense of obligation or requirement.
