14 B2 | 7. Klasse | Unit 02: It’s all relative Future perfect and continuous LANGUAGE 7 Grammar reminder When you imagine yourself in the future and look back at what has happened, you use the future perfect, often in combination with a time expression that includes the preposition by: By the time I am 75, many coastal areas will have become uninhabitable. When you predict what will be going on at a certain point in the future, you use the future continuous: 80 years from now, millions of people will be experiencing poverty and hunger because of climate change.
