I can use the short form of 'aller' with a range of infinitive verbs to express my own, and others' future intentions.

Show transcript
The SSC [qu] has the same sound in French as the hard 'c', like the [qu] in 'quand' which means 'when'. The singular forms of the verb 'partir' (to leave) have the same endings as the verb 'sortir' (to go out); -s,-s,-t,-t. These endings are silent final consonants, so the singular verb forms all sound the same. To express our future intentions, we use the 'je' form of the verb 'aller' followed by a verb in its infinitive form. To express other people's future intentions, we use the 'tu' or 'il, elle' forms of 'aller' followed by an infinitive.
