Future forms: will be doing / will have done

Goal: Use Future Continuous and Future Perfect to talk about actions in progress or completed at a future time.

Beyond will and going to, English has two more future forms. Future Continuous (will be + -ing) describes an action in progress at a future moment: “At 9 tomorrow I’ll be driving to Kochi.” Future Perfect (will have + past participle) describes an action completed before a future point: “By 2030 I’ll have finished my degree.” Also common: Present Continuous for fixed arrangements (“I’m meeting Anu at 6”) and Present Simple for timetables (“The train leaves at 7:10”).
