How to Speak about the Future: Future Time Clauses

What do you know about Future Time Clauses? Their meaning, their grammar, their structure…? Let’s pretend I tell you: “When I have some money, I will buy a new computer”
Is this sentence about the present, past or future? “When I have some money” uses Present grammar but is its meaning present as well? Nope!! The meaning is Future! One day, in the future, whenever I have some more money then… “I will buy a new computer”.
This sentence is an example of what we call FUTURE TIME CLAUSES. We use Future Time Clauses to talk about real future possibility or, in other words, to talk about what we think that will possibly happen in the future.
We’ll see that to use this type of constructions, we’ll need a Time Clause containing some kind of time reference and introducing a particular situation, as well as a Main Clause containing the result of that situation.
If you’d like to continue learning about Future Time Clauses and practise using them with me, then you are ready to make the best of this lesson!!! I hope you apply this knowledge to your everyday life.
QUIZ: Complete these sentences using the right form of the verbs in brackets.
1- Come on! if you ________ (not hurry), we ______ (be) late.
2- I ______ (call) you when I _______ (finish) studying.
3- By the time you ______ (save) that amount of money, I ______ (retire)!
4- ______ (not do) anything until I ______ (tell) you so!
5- I ______ (travel) to Switzerland before winter ______ (come).
6- We ______ (let) you know as soon as there ______ (be) a vacancy.
7- After you ______ (wash) your hands I ______ (give) you something to eat.
8- You should ______ (go) to the doctor if your headache ______ (not disappear).

Excellent lesson! Great explanations! Foreign teachers (whose first language isn't English) explain grammar so well. I think because they have to learn "the why," not just the how. Watch out for a few mistakes! We say, "move to London," not "move in London." Also, you should say "Until you feel better, you shouldn't go to work." Not "Until you don't feel better."

Hey, Laura, why is that you using future perfect with by the time and not with others?

[@EnglishwithLinguivers]

Cause 'BY' is one of the most common options to talk about deadlines 😉

[@andreagiraldomdphd.8376]

Hello ! It's been a marvellous lesson. I was wondering if I might dare to ask you a question? By the time mean before ?

[@EnglishwithLinguivers]

Thanks Andrea 😊.'By the time' is very similar to 'when'. E.g: 'By the time you come, it will be too late' = 'When you come, it will be too late. I hope this helps 😉.

[@andreagiraldomdphd.8376]

@@EnglishwithLinguivers Thank you, Prof. And in this case: by the time I arrived home, she had already gone away ( it's when or before ?)
