    When we're talking about two future actions where one will be completed before the other, we use here future perfect continues, and when we're in the middle of doing something in the future, we use future progressive. Is that correct?
    Examples:
    1. I'll have been watching the film before the power cut.
    2. I'll be driving until the fuels run out.
    Thanks in advance.

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, you are more or less correct but...
      there is a slight difference between the future perfect and future perfect continuous.
      1. The future perfect continuous can be used to focus on *DOING* an act (rather than the outcome).
      For example:
      'I will have been CLEANING my room for 2 hours by then. I will be tired.' = here you are laying stress on the fact that you will be cleaning and therefore it causes you to be tired.
      future perfect:
      'I will have cleaned my room by then. It will look clean and tidy.' = Here you are not focusing on the action of cleaning but the outcome i.e. the room looks clean.
      2. We also the future perfect continuous to talk about actions which are repetitive or happen multiple times over a given period of time as oppsed to just once.
      There are other points but that's enough for now.

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Both sentences are correct. The first sentence is future continuous and the second sentence is future simple.
      The first sentence means you started before 11 am and are in the MIDDLE of the action.
      The second sentence generally means you will START studying at 11 am.
      Hope that helps :-)

    2:36 i think is mistake, and correct is
    «next Friday you will be having a train journey from 1pm to 3pm» not you will have, because « from 1pm to 3pm» it's show us a period/time when the action happens? sorry if i wrote smth wrong, because English isn't my first and isn't my native language and i also can do mistakes in this question🙂

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Both are correct and valid: "You will have a train journey from 1 to 3 pm."
      Or "You will be having a train journey from 1 to 3 pm.".
      For instance you can say:
      'Next week we will have a science class from 2-4pm".
      The second sentence "...will be having a train journey", would arguably be used less frequently.
      However it would be quite natural and normal to say:
      'Next Monday from 2-3pm you will be sitting on the beach"
      or
      "Next Monday in the afternon you will be having your first Maths class"
      The difference between 'will have' and 'will be having' is that with the latter the focus is more on the actual action/activity.

    Mam please tell me what is the difference between future perfect, present perfect and past perfect?

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are 12 main tenses in English. These tenses are categorized by times of which there are three: PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE.
      Then there are four aspects: These are simple, continuous, perfect and perfect continuous.
      Perfect refers to an action happening from one time until another time or before another time.
      So a past perfect action is an action completed in the past and which happened before another time in the past.
      A present perfect action is an action started in the past and which is continuing now.
      A future perfect action is an action which will be completed in the future before another future time/action.

  • @skilleasy9501
    @skilleasy9501 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    You mean to say, future indefinite uses for point of time that will going to happen in future.
    And the other future continuous uses with duration of time.
    M I right?

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't entirely understand what you mean but in simple terms.
      The future perfect is an action that is completed in the future before another time or action in the future.
      For example: 'I will have brushed my teeth before I go to bed'.
      The act of brushing your teeth will have been completed before the second future which is going to bed. :)

    Hi nice video thank u:) but i wonder what is the key words?i mean like in the simple present "always", in the present contiounius is "now" etc.
    But in the simple future tense and future continuous? What are they?

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Karol! :)
      These key words can also be called 'signal words' and for the future simple they include the following signal words:
      "Tonight, tomorrow, next week, next month, I think, I hope, I expect, probably" and others :)
      For the future continuous it is a bit more difficult and generally include words that relate to the specific time being referred to e.g. they include:
      "This time (name of specific time)......When.....In 2/3 days or weeks time etc".
      I hope that helps!! :) x

      Hi Michele, thank you for your question.
      'I will be watching shows....' is a repeated action, you watch one show, then a second show, and then a third show and so on.....1, 2, 3.
      However the maths class is one thing, it is just one class.

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Hristov, both are valid but have a slightly different nuance in meaning but not a huge one.
      1. I will do (future simple) implies that this is when you begin the action.
      For example you have an English class at 6pm, so you would say 'I will study English at 6pm.'
      2. However if your class is 2 hours long e.g from 6-8pm then you would say: 'At 7pm I will be studying English.'
      For your particular example I would say it would be better to say 'They will work in that school.'
      'They will be working in the school.' implies that it has already been agreed upon and arranged and is more definite.
      I hope that helps.

    Hello madam what is the difference between going to do and going to be doing?

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, 'going to do', means you will start that action. So 'I am going to play tennis at 10 am' means you will start playing tennis at 10 am, whereas if you said 'I am going to be playing tennis at 10 am', it could either mean you start playing tennis at 10 am or you already started before 10 am and will be in the middle of that action.
      Going to do = similar to future simple, 'I will do.'
      Going to be doing = similar to future continuous, 'I will be doing'.

    Hello Madam, I hope you are doing well. I would appreciate if you could help me with this
    I often hear native speakers use different sentences in different situations, like
    I am lucky to work with him.
    I am lucky to be working with him.
    I am lucky to have worked with him. Or "happy to do" and "happy to be doing"
    How are they different?

    • @EnglishMadeSimple
      @EnglishMadeSimple  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi
      'I am lucky to have worked with him' is in the past.
      Also the grammatical structure here is 'have + past participle', so you would say for example:
      'I am lucky to have driven there'.
      We use the word 'driven' not 'drive' as it is the past participle form.
      'I am lucky to work with him' and 'I am lucky to be working with him', are the same though the latter might sometimes have a connotation of being more temporary or recent.
      Feel free to ask more questions or visit our website www.englishmadesimple.org and ask questions there.

      Future continuous = You will be in the middle of an action at a specific time in the future.
      1. I will start my class at 9 am.
      2. I will finish my class at 12 pm.
      However.
      'At 11.30 I will be studying in class' = future continuous = the action is neither finished or started but you are in the *MIDDLE* of that action.
