Talking about plans

Ir a + infinitivo

eer ah — Going to (do something)

"Mañana voy a estudiar dos horas."
Tomorrow I'm going to study for two hours.

Conjugate "ir", then add "a" and the infinitive: voy a comer, vamos a ver. It works just like English "going to", and in everyday speech it's often used more than the future tense.
