What is Future Tense in English?
Whenever you want to describe a future event or something that can happen (even if planned) then we use future tense. Like other tenses, it helps us specify the timing of events relative to the present moment from definite arrangements to uncertain predictions.
ଯେକୌଣସି ଭବିଷ୍ୟତ ଘଟଣା ବା ଘଟିବା ସମ୍ଭାବନା (ଯଦିଓ ଯୋଜନା ହୋଇଥିବା) ବର୍ଣ୍ଣନ କରିବାକୁ ଚାହୁଁଛନ୍ତି କିମ୍ବା ଘଟିପାରେ ତାହାହେଲେ ଆମେ ଭବିଷ୍ୟତ କାଳର ଉପୟୋଗ କରୁଥାଉ। ଅନ୍ୟ କାଳମାନଙ୍କ ପରି, ଏହା ଆମକୁ ନିର୍ଦିଷ୍ଟ ଯୋଜନାରୁ ଅନିଶ୍ଚିତ ଅନୁମାନ ଯାଏଁ ଘଟଣାର ସମୟ ନିର୍ଣୟ କରିବାର ସାହାଯ୍ୟ କରେ।
What are the different types of Future Tense?
Simple Future Tense: This tense is used for predictions, spontaneous decisions, and promises about the future. This involves using modal “will” plus the base form of the verb. Example: “I will travel to France next summer.”
Future Continuous Tense: This tense describes actions that will be in progress at a specific point in the future. It is formed using “will be” followed by the present participle (verb+ing). Example: “She will be studying at that time tomorrow.”
Future Perfect Tense: This tense is used to describe an action that will be completed before a specified point in the future. It is formed using “will have” followed by the past participle of the verb. Example: “By the end of this month, I will have completed the project.”
Future Perfect Continuous Tense: It describes actions that will continue up until a certain future moment, emphasizing the duration of the activity. This tense uses “will have been” followed by the present participle. Example: “He will have been working here for ten years by the end of 2024.”
What are some common question patterns on Future Tense in government job exams?
Incorrect Verb Forms: you may find questions where sentences with incorrect verb formations are asked for example: “She will finishing her degree by next year.” The error here is “will finishing,” which should be “will be finishing.”
Tense Consistency: Question may include paragraphs or sentences where the tense is inconsistently applied, and you must identify and correct these discrepancies. Example: “He says he will go to the doctor and took some medicine tomorrow.” The phrase “took some medicine” should be “will take some medicine.”
Subject-Verb Agreement in Future Constructions: Often, students make mistake in correct subject-verb agreement forms within future tense structures. Example: “I will write a letter.” vs. “We will write a letter.”
