One important point here is that the decision should have been made a while ago. Therefore, you cannot use this for decisions made on the spot. • お酒をやめるつもりです。 • osake o yameru tsumori desu • I intend to quit drinking. • 明日は家にいるつもり です。 • ashita wa ie ni iru tsumori desu. • As for tomorrow, I intend to stay at home. • 海外の大学に行くつもりです。 • kaigai no daigaku ni iku tsumori desu • I intend to go to a foreign university. • • Adding “to omou” or “to omotte iru” (~と思う, ~と思っている) after a verb that is in Volitional Form changes the meaning from “let’s [verb]” to “I am thinking that I will [verb].” Since “to omou” means “I think,” you can picture this grammar pattern as expressing a volitional thought or feeling that you are holding in your mind. • For example, a person who has said “let’s do it” to themselves, internally. The difference between “to omou” (which is present/future tense) and “to omotte iru” (which is progressive tense) in this pattern is that the former implies a new thought (something you have just now begun to think that you will do). The latter implies a longer-term thought (something that you’ve been thinking for a while that you will do). • お母さんに手紙を書こうと思います。 • Okaasan ni tegami o kakou to omoi masu • (I think I will write a letter to my mother). • お母さんに手紙を書こうと思っています。 • Okaasan ni tegami o kakou to omotte imasu • (I’m thinking I will write a letter to my mother). • • お酒をやめようと思います。 • osake o yameyou to omoimasu. • I intend to quit drinking. • 明日は家にいようと思います。 • ashita wa ie ni iyou to omoimasu. • As for tomorrow, I intend to stay at home. • 海外の大学に行こうと思います。 • kaigai no daigaku ni ikou to omoimasu. • I intend to go to a foreign university. • 来年結婚しようと思います。 • rainen kekkon shiyou to omoimasu. • I intend to get married next year.
