With believe, predict (if the evidence we’re making our prediction on isn’t obviously stated – in which case we should use GOING TO), think = we use WILL

(2) A week ago/ In 2015/ Yesterday – with definitive time adverbials – for actions which are grounded in the past – e.g. I was born in the 2000s. – We use a past simple tense.

DO the housework - (obavljati/izvršavati kućanske poslove) – collocation – the same as DO homework.

(9) going to hand it in – ‘going to ’ used for intentions and plans
