  3. A present tense form of the verb ir (to go) plus the preposition a plus an infinitive is often used as a substitute for the future tense in Spanish. The same phenomenon also occurs in English: • ¿Vas a estudiar mañana? Are you going to study tomorrow? • No voy a hacer nada. I'm not going to do anything.

She is probably at home. • Serán las ocho. It must be 8:00. (Or: It is probably 8:00, I think it's 8:00, etc.)
