I need an answer for the following question.

Is there any tense in English called Future perfect tense?

If so, tell me when to use that tense? How can we say future perfect tense? It is a prediction right. We are not sure whether it will happen or not.

" "Maybe I'll have gotten a good grade in English" As you can see the future perfect is formed with will+have+past participle " will + have + gotten" It expresses the idea that an event or action will be already completed by a certain time in the future. The point of future time can be mentioned in the form of time adverbials such as by this time next week, by Monday, by August , etc. Greetings A-93

Hi,

Yes there's a tense called " The future pefect"

Let's start with some exaples:

"By this time next week we'll have taken our exams"

"With a little luck I'll have done OK."

"Maybe I'll have gotten a good grade in English"

As you can see the future perfect is formed with will+have+past participle

" will + have +

Try plating about with "By this time tomorrow, I shall have been hanged".

That also includes the passive.
