Grammar rule

Grammar from units 7–9

Unit	Grammar	Example
7	be going to: plans, and predictions from what we can see	I'm going to run a half marathon next year. Look at the traffic! We're going to miss our flight.
8	polite requests: Can you / Could you…? Can I / Could I / May I…?	Could you send me the photos? Can I sit here? — Sure!
9	the past continuous, with when and while	I was walking to the park when I got lost. While I was running, it started to rain.

Three things to watch: the base form after going to, can and could (not going to runs, not Could you sends); am / is / are before going to (not I going to); and was / were + -ing for the longer action, the past simple for the short one (not I was walk).
