Back to: The Future
To talk about something that is already arranged or planned
We use the present continuous (verb + ing) to talk about something that we have arranged or planned. The arrangement or plan can be for yourself on your own or can involve one or more other people.
We normally add a time phrase such as tonight, tomorrow, July etc…
I’m having dinner with my boyfriend tonight.
We’re meeting Bob tomorrow at the gym.
My sister is getting married in July.
Are you doing anything tomorrow night?
I can’t come to the cinema tonight because I’m revising for my exam.
