Pick the word that fits the line.
(blank) go to Seville. I have time off.
Clue: a decision about the future
Options: We going · We'll · We will to

Good to know
For plans you made earlier, going to is often more natural: we're going to go south. Will is the same word for every person.
Your turn
Pick the word that fits the line.
(blank) go too! I need the beach and the sun.
Clue: Elena decides about herself, for the future
Options: I went · I'll · She'll
Show answer
I'll go too! I need the beach and the sun.
¡Yo también iré! Necesito playa y sol.
