Write three sentences about your own life in the Future Perfect Continuous. Use one of these words in each.

• for
• by
• by the time
• by then
• all day

1. 1.a) 'll have been learning For ten years measured at a future point (2027).
2. 2.b) 'll have been waiting How long the waiting will have lasted when you arrive.
3. 3.a) 'll have been working After will have been, use the -ing form.
4. 4.b) 'll have known Know is a state verb, so use the Future Perfect simple.
5. 5.a) have After will, it's always have.

1. 1.In May I'll have been working here for a year. For a year measures time up to a future point, so it needs the perfect continuous.
2. 2.By then I'll have known her for years. Know is a state verb, so it isn't used in the continuous.
3. 3.She will have been working. After will, it's always have, never has.
