Future Perfect Tense

Future perfect:- We use the future perfect (will/won't have + past participle) to talk about something that will be completed before a specific time in the future. 

The formula for the future perfect tense is pretty simple: will have + [past participle]. It doesn’t matter if the subject of your sentence is singular or plural. The formula doesn’t change.

We use this tense to give completion report in Future.

The structure of the future perfect tense is as follows: 

Subject+ will have+ past participle.

Example:- 

By the time Mansi arrives, I will have finished cooking dinner.

   - In this sentence, the action of finishing cooking dinner (future perfect) will be completed before the time Mansi arrives (future statement).

 

·       I will have taken my dinner.

·       I will have done my homework.

·       Train will have left.

·       My father will have gone to park.

 

Note:- In the future perfect tense, the action you’re talking about must have a deadline. If you don’t mention a deadline, use the simple future tense instead of the future perfect tense. By this time next week, Riya will have left for her trip. Three days from now, we will have finished our project. At midnight, the party will have ended.

 

·       Will you have eaten already?

·       Ram will not have arrived by the time the parade is over. 

·       When I travel to France, I will have been to ten countries.

·       My sister will have cleaned the bathroom before the party.

 

We use the future perfect with a future time word, (and often with 'by') to talk about an action that will finish before a certain time in the future, but we don't know exactly when. By 10 o'clock, I will have finished my homework. (= I will finish my homework some time before 10, but we don't know exactly when.)

Fill in the blanks:-

1.  John will have ___a cake before you arrive. (bake/ baked)

2.  They will ___painted the fence before I have a chance to speak to them. (have/ has)

3.  By the time you arrive, we ____the meal and the speeches.

(will have finished/ will have finish)

4.  I will __completed my assignment by 3 o'clock. (has/ have)

5.  I will ____my room before my parents come home.

(have cleaned/ has cleaned)

6.  We will not have ­­­_____Julie. (meet/ met/ meeting)

7.  It will not ____ stopped raining. (have/ has)

8.  They will not have ___ Japan. (leave/ left)

Past Perfect Tense

Past perfect:- We use “has and have” with V3 (past participle) to make a completion report in the present sense of time. Now we will learn how to make a sentence for a completion report in the past sense of time. As we know past of have is had (V2) and "had" gives us past sense of time. We use "had" with "V3" in past perfect tense.

The past perfect tense is a tense used to describe actions or states that occurred in the past before another action or event also in the past. It is formed by combining the auxiliary verb "had" with the past participle form of the main verb.

We use this tense to give completion report in past.

The structure of the present perfect tense is as follows:

Subject+ had+ past participle.

Example:- She had already eaten when I arrived.

   - In this sentence, the action of eating (past perfect) occurred before the action of arriving (past simple).

 ·       When my father came from duty, I had taken my dinner.

·       When my mother asked me, I had done my homework.

·       When we reached to the station, train had left.

·       My father had gone to park, when I woke up.
