Future Perfect Continuous Tense
- By tomorrow / 8 o’clock
- This year / month / week
- Next year / month / week
Bentuk
Subjek + will + have + been + Verb+ing. Contoh:
- We will have been driving 6 hours by the time we get home.
In the summer Mike will have been trying to find a new job for five months. - Jane will be very tired when she comes home, because she will have been flying over 24 hours.
- My father and I will have been breeding sheep for 20 years tomorrow.
- By the year 2020, linguists will have been studying and defining the Indo-European language family for more than 200 years.
Catatan: Jika durasi sebuah aktivitas (sejak April, selama 3 jam) tidak diketahui maka Future Continuous harus digunakan ketimbang bentuk perfect.
Untuk bentuk negatif kita tambahkan not.
- She won’t have been writing the book for four months by the end of October.
Kalimat-kalimat negatif kedengarannya tidak natural. Kemungkinan karena jawaban terhadap sebuah pertanyaan seperti “Will she have been teaching for 30 years this year?” cukup “No, I don’t think so”.
Bentuk negatif memiliki pola sebagai berikut:
Will + subjek + have + been + verb+ing. Contoh:
- Will he have been writing the composition for a month by the end of February?
Pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang dimulai dengan “how long” lebih umum:
- How long will you have been learning German this year?
- How long will you have been trying to get your driving license this week? I hope you’ll finally make it!

apa itu berarti tindakan tsb akan terjadi tapi yg dijelaskan ketika tindakannya belum selesai dan nggak jelas apakah akan selesai? sebab kalau sudah jelas bukannya pakai Future Past Perfect ?
contoh :
Well, my wall is dirty and full of gravities. I will have been painting it all night long…
beda kan dengan :
I will have painted it all night long…
yg menyatakan bahwa tindakan itu pasti diselesaikan.
