Explanation:
We use "going to" to indicate a future action that we have already planned. The structure is:
subject + to be + going to + main verb
The auxiliary verb is "to be". It must be conjugated according to the subject of the sentence: I am, you are, he is, she is, it is, we are, or they are. If the sentence is negative, the verb "to be" can be contracted with "not" when possible: aren't or isn't. If the sentence is interrogative, "to be" must be placed before the subject. Take a look at the examples below to better understand it:
- Lisa (she) is going to cook us dinner.
- Lisa isn't going to cook us dinner.
- Is Lisa going to cook us dinner?
