How does the future continuous twnse work 
The future continuous tense is a verb tense that shows an action happening over a 
period of time in the future. “I will be dancing all night” is an example of the 
future continuous tense, as it indicates an action continuing over a specific future 
period of time. Compare it to this sentence, written in the simple future tense: “I 
will dance.” Although this example indicates an intention to dance in the future, it 
does not refer to a continuous action over a specific period of time in the future. 
The future continuous tense can be confusing because it sometimes seems 
interchangeable with other future tenses. Below, we cover the specifics of the 
future continuous tense so you know when to use it—and when 
not
to use it.
What is the future continuous tense? 
The future continuous tense, also known as the future progressive tense, is a verb 
tense that shows an ongoing action in the future. It is the future version of 
the present continuous tense, which uses a similar construction.
Future continuous: 
I will
be
watching my shows from lunch until dinner. 
Present continuous: 
I am watching my shows. 
It is helpful to use the future continuous tense when describing:
multiple actions happening in the future 
planned or confirmed future events taking place at a specific time 
Although the future continuous tense is often confused with the simple future 
tense, there are some key differences between the two. The future continuous tense 
is usually used with a specified period of time, whereas the simple future tense can 
be used with or without an exact time.
The future continuous tense also shows more certainty than the simple future tense 
does. We use the future continuous tense for actions we know will happen, but we 
use the simple future tense for actions that are less likely.
Future continuous (certain): 
They will
be
promoting me to manager on Friday. 
Simple future (uncertain): 
They will promote me to manager one day. 
There’s also some confusion about the future continuous tense vs. the future 
perfect continuous tense. Keep in mind that the future continuous tense is for 
actions taking place over a specific period of time in the future, while the future 
perfect continuous tense is for actions that are ongoing into the future but lack a 
specified end date. 
Future continuous: 
I will be working as a sales assistant from November to 
December
.
Future perfect continuous: 
In December, I will have been working as a sales 
assistant for a year. 
Like all other continuous tenses, you cannot use the future continuous tense with 
stative verbs like 
want
,
 need
,
 love
, or
 hate
. Use the simple future tense with stative 
verbs instead.

Future continuous tense (incorrect): 
I will be needing help with the repairs 
tomorrow. 
Simple future tense (correct): 
I will need help with the repairs tomorrow. 
How does the future continuous tense work? 
The future continuous tense is formed with the words 
will 
and 
be
plus the 
present participle of the actionable verb. Unlike most other verb tenses, you 
do not need to conjugate any verbs to match person, number, or gender.
[
will
] + [
be
] + [present participle of verb] 
She will
be
speaking in the auditorium this evening. 
Essentially, the future continuous tense takes the present continuous tense and 
adjusts it to speak to the future.
Remember that when using the modal verb 
will
, the verb that follows uses its bare 
infinitive form (the infinitive without 
to
). So when we add 
will
to the present 
continuous, the verbs 
is
, 
are
, or 
am
take their bare infinitive form, 
be
. The present
