⚜ SHALL ⚜

'Shall' is not very frequently used in modern English; However, you still see people using 'Shall' here and there. In modern English, it is used to make an offer, to make sure something must definitely happen, or to ask for advice.

šŸ”” Example šŸ””

āž–When shall we meet?
āž•Shall we dance?
āž–Shall I read the book?
āž•You shall not pass!

怰怰怰怰怰怰怰怰
šŸ”“ Older Usage šŸ”“

In older grammar, the correct way to use 'shall' was with first person pronouns (I and We), whereas 'will' was used with second and third person pronouns (you; he, she, it, they).

šŸ”” Example šŸ””

āž–I shall bring the kids.
āž•We shall be in Japan.
āž–You will go there.
āž•They will have a good time.

怰怰怰怰怰怰怰怰
