Ir + a + infinitive verb

You are already familiar with the verb IR, which means "to go" in English. This verb can be used for talking about things that are going to happen in the near future (notice how I just said "going to happen"?). We use it in English for this, too, so this is a pretty straightforward concept. Once you get the hang of it, you will love this feature of this very important verb! (And, spoiler alert: there's also a future tense).
