Qu'est-ce que tu vas faire ce weekend? Le Verbe Aller

The question "Qu'est-ce que tu vas faire ce weekend?" = What are you going to do this weekend?

You can respond by saying:

Je vais voir un film.  I am going to see a movie.

Je vais voyager.  I am going to travel.

In order to answer, we need the verb "ALLER":

ALLER = TO GO

ALLER is an IRREGULAR VERB

It does not follow a regular -ER verb pattern when conjugated

==>We have to memorize the forms.

(For example, it is not "je alle".. but "je vais".)

Here you can see and hear the irregular verb "ALLER" conjugated:

Examples:

Je vais au cinéma.  ~  I go/I am going to the movies.

Ils vont au théâtre.  ~  They go/They are going to the theater.

The verb ALLER is also very useful to talk about things that are going to happen in the immediate future = Le Futur Proche.  

The formula for the futur proche is:

Subject Pronoun + Conjugated Form of Aller + Infinitive (verb with the ER, IR, RE)

Je vais (I am going) étudier (to study).  

Tu vas (You are going) jouer au foot  (to play soccer).

Vous allez (You all are going) aller au parc (to go to the park).

Negative:  Notice how ne..pas goes around the first/conjugated verb:

Je ne vais pas étudier.

Nous n'allons pas chanter.

Elles ne vont pas danser.
