The Future Continuous Tense
The future continuous is made up of two elements: the simple future of the verb 'to be' + the present participle (base+ing)
-
Subject
simple future, 'to be'
base+ing
You
will be
watching
Affirmative I will be asking
Negative She won't be leaving
Interrogative Will they be retiring?
Interrogative negative Won't we be staying?
Example for the verb to stay, future continuous:
Affirmative |
Negative |
Interrogative |
I will be staying |
I won't be staying |
Will I be staying? |
You will be staying |
You won't be staying |
Will you be staying? |
He, she, it will be staying |
He won't be staying |
Will she be staying? |
We will be staying |
We won't be staying |
Will we be staying? |
You will be staying |
You won't be staying |
Will you be staying? |
They will be staying |
They won't be staying |
Will they be staying? |
You may write the examples on the blackboard/whiteboard and ask students to write them down.
The future continuous is formed with shall/will + be + - ing:
I/we shall be doing
You/he/she/it/they will be doing
We can use the future continuous to talk about events that will be happening at a particular time in the future:
This time next month we'll be sailing through the Caribbean.
I hope the race goes well. We'll be watching it on TV.
We can also use the future continuous to talk about things that we expect to happen in the usual course of events. In this case it does not suggest "continuousness":
You'll be seeing her soon, won't you?
Management will be meeting the union representative again presently.
We can also use the future continuous to make polite enquiries, when we wish to know what somebody's plans are:
Will you be coming along with us this evening?
We can also use the future continuous to talk about what we believe or guess is happening at the moment of speaking:
They'll be arriving in New York just about now.
I wouldn't phone just yet - she'll be having her weekly massage.
