FUTURE PERFECT CONTINUOUS

Будущее совершенное длительное время

Future Perfect Continuous образуется при помощи вспомогательного глагола to be в форме Future Perfect ( shall have been, will have been ) и причастия настоящего времени смыслового глагола - Present Participle (IV-я форма или ing-форма).

Когда употребляется	пример
●действие начнется и будет длиться до определенного момента и в сам момент в будущем – “предбудущее».	By the following summer we’ll have been building a new house for a year. Летом будет уже год, как мы строим дом.
●всегда указан период времени, в течение которого будет длиться: for an hour в течение часа, for some time	She will have been working at the university for 10 years. Она работает в университете уже 10 лет.
●указан точный момент, до которого ( указатели- by the time, by the 1st of May) и в течение которого будет совершаться длительное будущее действие, которое начнется ранее другого будущего действия в Present Simple	The girl will have been playing the violin for 2 hours, when Granny returns home. Девочка будет уже 2 часа играть на скрипке, когда придет бабушка.

Эта форма употребляется крайне редко. Чаще выбирают либо Future Continuous, либо Future Perfect. Как и другие времена этой группы, эта форма употребляется тогда, когда указан период времени, в течение которого действие будет совершаться. На русский язык переводится глаголами несовершенного вида будущего времени.
