Can somebody help me with this dilema.
Is there a difference between future use of BE GOING TO and PRESENT CONTINUOUS ?
Here is an example :
I am going to take my exam in June.
I am taking my exam in June.

Are these two sentences completely the same or there is a difference.
Don't laugh to me here.English is not my native language so I have to learn.

I see BE GOING TO expressing an intention.
"I am taking my exam in June" means that you not only intend to sit for the exam in june but may you already applied and reviewed all the materials.

Hope I'm right!

No I think that both sentences expres intentions , but I do not not if there is some kind of difference.

  #4

Or maybe you are right !

  #5

You can not imagine how important it is to really know the language!

  #6
