Future continuous or progressive tense

The future continuous tense is used to describe ongoing actions or events that will be happening at a specific point in the future. It is formed by using the auxiliary verb "will" (or "shall") followed by the auxiliary verb "be" in its present participle form (-ing form) and the base form of the main verb. The basic structure is as follows:

Subject + will + be + present participle (-ing form of the verb)

Here are some examples:

  1. "I will be studying for my exam tomorrow evening."
  2. "They will be traveling to Europe next month."
  3. "She will be working late tonight."
  4. "We will be watching a movie at that time."
  5. "He will be playing football this weekend."

In these examples, the future continuous tense is used to indicate that the action or event will be ongoing or in progress at a specific point in the future. It emphasizes the duration or continuity of the action.

It's important to note that the future continuous tense is often used with time expressions that indicate a specific future time, such as tomorrow, next month, or tonight.
