Обратите внимание!
Be going to как правило, не употребляется с глаголами go и come. Если по-русски «я coбираюсь пойти» — вполне приемлемая фраза, то по-английски ‘I’m going to go’ звучит не совсем корректно.
Вместо ‘I’m going to go’ (я собираюсь пойти) и ‘I’m going to come’ (я собираюсь прийти) следует использовать просто ‘I’m going’ и ‘I’m coming’.
