***** NOT A TEACHER *****
BE GOING TO
(1) Oh no! It's already 4:00. We are going to be late.
(2) Look at those black clouds. It is going to rain.
SHOULD
(3) A thread starter should always thank the people who made the effort to answer the thread starter's question.
(4) A country's leaders should be honest, hard-working, and humble.
HAVE TO
(5) In the United States of America, everyone has to pay his taxes. (If she or he
does not, she or he will be in big trouble. Even the president has to pay taxes.)
(6) When you are driving your car, you have to stop at every red light.
(Examples 1 and 2 are credited to Grammar in Use by Mr. Raymond Murphy.)
