The future simple tense is used to describe actions or events that will

happen in the future. It is formed using the auxiliary verb "will" (or
sometimes "shall") followed by the base form of the main verb. This tense
is straightforward and does not change based on the subject.
Structure:
• Positive: Subject + will + base verb
Example: She will travel to Paris next week.
• Negative: Subject + will not (won't) + base verb
Example: They won't attend the meeting tomorrow.
• Question: Will + subject + base verb?
Example: Will you call me later?
