Grammar
Future ‘will’ (negative)
We use the simple future negative to talk about predictions, promises, offers, and spontaneous decisions in a negative way.
To make the simple future negative, we place the subject first, then will + not or n’t + verb + object. Not is more formal, and n’t is more common:
I will not support that decision.
Caroline won’t come to the reception.
The children will not have time to eat lunch.
Pete won’t care if we are five minutes late.
