ENGLISH TENSES (10) FUTURE CONTINUOUS

The FUTURE CONTINUOUS TENSE is formed using “will be” with the -ing form of a verb
 (e.g. I will be working).

 The future continuous tense is used:


 (1) to describe something that will happen at a given point in the future, e.g. “The South Devon Railway has announced that steam locomotive 1501 will be visiting them in 2019.”

FUTURE CONTINUOUS


 (2) to speculate about what is happening in the present, e.g. “It is autumn, and many people will not be using their pools at the moment, but they will still be full of water and we all know water is very enticing to children.”
