•
To wish; to desire; to incline to have.

As an auxiliary, will is used to denote futurity dependent
on the verb. Thus, in first person, "I will" denotes willingness,
consent, promise; and when "will" is emphasized, it denotes
determination or fixed purpose; as, I will go if you wish; I will go at
all hazards. In the second and third persons, the idea of distinct
volition, wish, or purpose is evanescent, and simple certainty is
appropriately expressed; as, "You will go," or "He will go," describes
a future event as a fact only. To emphasize will denotes (according to
the tone or context) certain futurity or fixed determination.
•
To be willing; to be inclined or disposed; to be pleased;
to wish; to desire.
