What should one pay attention to when translating "I will go to military-school [within the next week]" into Chinese?

Question

What advice for translation could you give in this context, how would you translate the following sentences containing adverbials:

1. I will go to military-school soon.

2. I will go to military-school within the next week.

3. I will go to military-school once I have finished studying.

My attempt on translating (please feel free to correct my mistakes):

• 我 即将 去 军校。
• 我 下星期里 去 军校。
• 我 比及读完 去 军校

Answer 1

我即将去军校 is grammatically correct, but 即将 sounds too formal. Try this:

我很快就要去军校了。 I soon will go-to military-school le.

Notice that I used 了 which marks the end of what I am saying. Otherwise a listener may expect that you have something more to say. There are subtle uses of 了 that may take pages to explain.

If you want a formal form, 我即将去军校了 is perfectly fine.

我下星期里去军校 is understandable. Within is kind of a formal preposition word in English. In Chinese you may want to say:

我要在下星期内去军校。 I will at next week within go-to military-school.

在...(以)内 is more idiomatic.

我比及读完去军校 -- 比及 is an archaic word that is no longer in use. study is 学习; It can be 读 sometimes, but the context is missing. Anyway:

我一旦学习完就去军校。 I once study finish then go-to military-school.

Answer 2

I will go to military-school soon.
我很快就要去军校了。

I will go to military-school within the next week. (Sounds a bit strange)
I will go to military-school within a week.
我将在一周内去军校上课。

I will go to military-school once I have finished studying.
(If you are going on to military school, you haven't finished studying!)
After I graduate, I will go the military academy to continue my studies.
等我毕业之后，我会去军校继续学习。
