FUTURE PERFECT SIMPLE VS PROGRESSIVE

FUTURE PERFECT SIMPLE VS PROGRESSIVE

Future Perfect: WILL + HAVE + P.P.

The future perfect is formed with the future modal will, the base verb have, and the past participle of the main verb. It is used when you think the first future action will finish before the second future action.

EXAMPLE

a simple present verb is used in the dependent clause, so students need to be careful of the subject (the verb will end in -s for the following subjects: she, he, it, a singular count/countable noun, and a non-count/uncountable noun).

Multiple Choice

Transform the verb "BE" in the future perfect tense.

• Will have is

• Will have been

• Might have been

• Will have was

EXAMPLES:

• By this time next month, I'll have done all my work (i.e. the work will be finished next month at the latest).

• In 5 years time, I'll have had 2 children

• By the time we get to the cinema, the film will have started.

Poll

Now we will see future perfect progressive. Do you think it's similar or different that what we just saw?

• Boo! SAME

• I think it's different.

Future perfect progressive:

WILL + HAVE + BEEN + -ING VERB

The future perfect progressive is formed with the future modal will, the base verb have, the past participle been, and the -ing form of the main verb. It is used when you think the first future action will continue until the second future action.

EXAMPLES:

• They will have been talking for over an hour by the time Thomas arrives.

• James will have been teaching at the university by the time he leaves for Asia

• John will be tired when he gets home because he will have been jogging for over an hour.
