Rules and examples from this lesson

Future Continuous: activity in progress

Imagine a moment in the future and look at what is happening around it. Future Continuous puts that moment in the middle of the activity: it has started, but it is not finished yet.

subject + will be + verb-ing

Future Perfect: completion by a future point

Future Perfect looks back from a point in the future and says that something will already be done by then. The exact moment when it happens is not important — only that it is complete before the deadline.

subject + will have + past participle
