BUSINESS ENGLISH 3: GRAMMARUNIT 1: CORPORATE CULTURE
1. Future continuous
We can use the future continuous (will/won't be + -ing form) to talk about future actions that:
will be in progress at a specific time in the future:
o When you come out of school tomorrow, I'll be boarding a plane.
o Try to call before 8 o'clock. After that, we'll be watching the match.
o You can visit us during the first week of July. I won't be
working then.
we see as new, different or temporary:
o Today we're taking the bus but next week we'll be
taking the train.
o He'll be staying with his parents for several months
while his father is in recovery.
o Will you be starting work earlier with your new job?
2. Future perfect
We use the future perfect simple (will/won't have + past participle) to talk about something that will be
completed before a specific time in the future.
The guests are coming at 8 p.m. I'll have finished cooking by then.
On 9 October we'll have been married for 50 years.
Will you have gone to bed when I get back?
We can use phrases like by or by the time (meaning 'at some point before') and in or in a day's time / in two
months' time / in five years' time etc. (meaning 'at the end of this period') to give the time period in which the
action will be completed.
