Future Continuous

Future Continuous has two different forms: "will be doing " and "be going to be doing." Unlike Simple Future forms, Future Continuous forms are usually interchangeable.[/left]

"Will"

will be + present participle

You will be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight

Be Going To

am/is/are + going to be + present participle

You are going to be waiting for her when her plane arrives tonight.

REMEMBER: It is possible to use either "will" or "be going to" to create the Future Continuous with little difference in meaning.

Complete List of Future Continuous Forms

USE 1 Interrupted Action in the Future

Use the Future Continuous to indicate that a longer action in the future will be interrupted by a shorter action in the future. Remember this can be a real interruption or just an interruption in time.

I will be watching TV when she arrives tonight.

USE 2 Specific Time as an Interruption in the Future

In USE 1, described above, the Future Continuous is interrupted by a short action in the future. In addition to using short actions as interruptions, you can also use a specific time as an interruption

Tonight at 6 PM, I am going to be eating dinner.
I will be in the process of eating dinner.

USE 3 Parallel Actions in the Future

When you use the Future Continuous with two actions in the same sentence, it expresses the idea that both actions will be happening at the same time. The actions are parallel.

I am going to be studying and he is going to be making dinner.

USE 4 Atmosphere in the Future

In English, we often use a series of Parallel Actions to describe atmosphere at a specific point in the future

When I arrive at the party, everybody is going to be celebrating. Some will be eating. Others are going to be talking. A few people will be eating pizza, and several people are going to be drinking coffee. They always do the same thing.
