 What Is Future Perfect Continuous?

Future Perfect Continuous tense also sometimes

called the future perfect progressive, is a verb
tense that describes actions that will continue up
until a point in the future. The future perfect
progressive emphasizes the duration of an
activity that will be in progress before another
time or event in the future.
When we describe an action in the future, then we
must project ourselves forward in time and see the
past as a benchmark for the duration of the activity
we are expressing. The activity will begin at some
point in the past, present, or in the future and is
expected to continue in the future.

The Use of The Future
Perfect Continuous
Tense
 If you use the present-future time
frame, it means that events occur
in the present time until some time
in the future.

For Example: By this day, Azka

will have been reading the novel
for tomorrow.
The Future Perfect Continuous
Tense is not only from the
present to the future, but also
from the past to the future.
 If you use the past-future frame
time, it means that we are
indicating that this event has
started in the past, is still going in
the present, and there is a time
limit in the future.
 Example
I’ve been living in Yogyakarta
since 2018 and I plan that I’ll
be here forever. So now, in
2022, I can say, “By 2023, I
will have been living in
Yogyakarta for five years.
