The usage of propose

I'm wondering.. Propose means intend, if I use it like be going to, does it right or wrong?

I'm going to book that sit

I propose to book that sit

I'm going to attend the meeting tomorrow

I propose to attend the meeting tomorrow

"book that sit" does not make sense. I suppose you mean "book that seat"? All your sentences are lacking full stops.

  • "book that sit" does not make sense.
  • I suppose you mean "book that seat"?
  • All your sentences are lacking full stops.
  • Otherwise, all the sentences are correct.
  • "I propose to" is more formal than "I'm going to", and, to me, can sound slightly less definite, as if there is a slight possibility of your being persuaded not to do that thing.
