I'm studying english English but I have difficults difficulties to learn the difference between 'shall' and 'will' in at the future tense ! For example, can I say " I shall go " or must I say I will go ? How What is the difference ? Thank you!

Generally, shall is used for the future with the first person pronouns I and We. Will is used with the first person only when we wish to express determination. Although this is the general distinction between shall and will, many linguists have challenged this rule and it is often not observed even in formal writing.

Thank you. maris.

Antonio, I agree with Ryan's explanation above, but generally in spoken and written American English "shall" is increasingly being replaced in all usage by "will".  "Shall" is even beginning to sound obsolete or at the least very formal.
