Will vs Going to

These two words are used to describe the future or the things that you wanna do in the future. The differences between both words are that "will" is just to predict things, for example: rapid decisions, offers, promises, threats and refusals.

When you use "will" you are predicting situations, but you don't know if really will happen or not, because are spontaned things there aren't planifated.

"Won't" is the contraction that you can use to deny whatever prediction or idea, the full word is "will not".

And in the case of "going to" this is not the same. When we use "going to" for talk about whatever situation or to predicting something, is because there are plans and evidences. Are situations that you has been planed time ago but that going to happen in the future.

The informal way to say "going to" is "gonna", and is very popular when spoken english.
