Future Continuous Tense | Future Tenses | English Tenses | Use of Will and Shall | English Grammar
Learning Objectives First I am stating the learning objectives of today’s lesson. At the end of the lesson, the students must be able to: 1. Define Future Continuous Tense 2. Convert positive sentences into negative and interrogative forms 3. Use the correct form of verb Definition Now I come to definition, The future continuous tense (also known as the future progressive) is used to describe an unfinished action occurring in the future for an expected length of time. This action can either begin in the future, or it can already be in progress in the present and continue into the future at a given point. The first kind of sentences are Affirmative Sentences Sentences Formation: Subject + will/shall + be + verb(ing. I, We - will or Shall He She It You They S/N P/N - will As usual, we will be concerned mainly with these three kinds of sentences, that is, positive, negative and interrogative sentences. Now I am giving you the model sentences of positive form. Model Sentences a. She will be eating ice-cream in the evening. b. They will be taking dinner at 8 o’clock tomorrow. c. We will be finishing our work. d. He will be attending the English language class in the coming vacation. e. She will be completing her work. f. They will be coming here before the second lesson. g. You will be playing football in the FIFA World Cup in 2022. h. We will be learning English in the next academic session. hese are the negative sentences. In these sentences we use will be as a helping verb. The sentence formation is: Subject + will/shall + not + be + verb ing. The model sentences have been converted like these. • Model Sentences • She will not be eating ice-cream in the evening. • They will not be taking dinner at 8 o’clock tomorrow. • We will not be finishing our work. • He will not be attending the English language class in the coming vacation. • She will not be completing her work. • They will not be coming here before the second lesson. • You will not be playing football in the FIFA World Cup in 2022. • We will not be learning English in the next academic session. These sentences can also be written or spoken with contracted form of will not as won’t. The sentences will have this pattern. The sentence formation will be: Subject + won’t + be + verb(ing). a. She won’t be eating ice-cream in the evening. b. They won’t be taking dinner at 8 o’clock tomorrow. c. We won’t finishing our work. d. He won’t be attending the English language class in the coming vacation. e. She won’t be completing her work. f. They won’t be coming here before the second lesson. g. You won’t be playing football in the FIFA World Cup in 2022. h. We won’t be learning English in the next academic session. Interrogative Sentences The sentence formation of interrogative sentences will be like this. Will/Shall + subject + be + verb (ing) ? Will or shall in the beginning, then subject and then be and then verb ing and a question mark is used at the end. Model Sentences a. Will she be eating ice-cream in the evening? b. Will they be taking dinner at 8 o’clock tomorrow? c. Will we be finishing our work? d. Will he be attending the English language class in the coming vacation? e. Will she be completing her work? f. Will they be coming here before the second lesson? g. Will you be playing football in the FIFA World Cup in 2022? h. Shall we be learning English in the next academic session? Here are negative-interrogative sentences. The sentence pattern is : Will/Shall + subject + not + be + verb(ing)? The converted sentences would be like these: Model Sentences • Will she not be eating ice-cream in the evening? • Will they not be taking dinner at 8 o’clock tomorrow? • Will we not be finishing our work? • Will he not be attending the English language class in the coming vacation? • Will she not be completing her work? • Will they not be coming here before the second lesson? • Will you not be playing football in the FIFA World Cup in 2022? • Shall we not be learning English in the next academic session? Now the same sentences can be changed into negative-interrogatives with the help of contracted forms.
