Will or Going To ???
Which one is correct...
I think, she is a good girl and she WILL help you when you need help.
I think, she is a good girl and she IS GOING TO help you when you need help.
Assuming that the speaker has positive previous experiences / impression about the girl, the speaker is making a prediction basing on proofs / information. From this perspecive, it seems "going to future" is the right option.
However, if the speaker is making this statement basing on his personal, subjective point of view / ideas, "simple future" seems as the better option. Because, this makes the prediction one, which doesn't base on proofs / information.
What is your idea ????
Thanks
