1. BACK TO THE FUTURE
THE FUTURE PERFECT TENSE THAT IS…

2. THE PERFECT FUTURE TENSE
• We use the future perfect tense when one future action will be completed before another future action
takes place.
• For example: I will have eaten lunch when she arrives.
She arrives
Lunch will be eaten
Note: the second verb is in
the present simple tense.
Can you think of another
