Is this sentence correct grammatically?

Question

We intend on going to college next year.

Answer 1

Yes. For a sentence to be correct, there needs to be a subject, predicate, and a complete thought. This gives you an independent clause.

The subject is the noun- in this case it is 'we'

The predicate tells one what the subject is doing; therefore, it includes a verb- in this case it is 'intend on going'

A complete thought- you can not say, 'Although we intend on going to college.' This is not a complete thought due to the dependent marker 'although'.

This sentence has all three of these elements; thus, it is a correct sentence.

Hope this helps.

Answer 6

Yep! Sounds about right!!

Answer 7

Informally, yes.  But In formal written English (Standard Academic Discourse), it's wrong.  Instead it should read:

"We intend to go to college next year."

Reason?  The verb "to go" is following the verb "to intend."  Therefore, the verb "to go" should be in its infinitive form.

Informally, we often use the verb "to intend" incorrectly and put the preposition "on" after it.  Doing this necessitates the use of the gerund form of the verb (in this case, "going").  Of course when you say it, we all understand you.  But if you want to get nit-picky, it should be the sentence I've phrased above.

Answer 8

We intend going to college next year.

Our intention is to go to college next year.
