1. Use the verb “aller” (to go) in the present tense:
je vais - I am going
tu vas - You are going
il/elle/on va - he/she/one is going
nous allons - we are going
vous allez - you (plural/formal) are going
ils/elles vont - they (m/f) are going
2. Add the infinitive of the main verb (unchanged form):
Examples of infinitives: manger (to eat), finir (to finish), parler (to talk), etc.
3. Structure:
Subject + aller + infinitive
Je vais manger. (I am going to eat.)
Nous allons finir. (We are going to finish.)
4. For negative sentences:
Put ne…pas around aller
Je ne vais pas manger.
Ils ne vont pas chanter.
Examples:
Tu vas jouer. → You are going to play.
Elle ne va pas parler. → She is not going to speak.
