• Therefore, every form is irregular

a construction similar to the English one.ir + a + infinitive

• She is going to go to the movies.– Ella va a ir al cine.

*“vamos a” can mean “let’s” as in “Let’s dance!” (¡vamos a bailar!)

So, it could mean “Let’s dance”or “We’re going to dance”

(You use the context of the situation to know which meaning is intended)
