Future perfect
Subject + will + have + past participle
Future perfect is used when we want to indicate a future event that has a definitive end date. For example, if I say that Bob will have graduated from high school in 2022, it is implicit that, by 2022, Bob will finish high school. Therefore, we use this tense whenever we are talking about a future activity that has an established time or date to finish. Let’s take a look at some affirmative examples:
Marry will have married by next November.
> Marry will marry before next November.
I will have slept eight hours.
> If I start to sleep at midnight and wake up at 8 a.m., I will have slept 8 hours.
If we want to make a negative sentence using the future perfect, we use subject + will + not + have + past participle of the main verb. Take a look at these:
I will not have eaten by then.
Jenny will not have saved enough money yet.
At last, if we want to make questions using the future perfect tense, the formation is will + subject + have + participle of the main verb. Check it out:
Will you have married Jerome by then?
Will the plant have grown by next summer?
