Future Time
The future is uncertain. We know the past. We know the
present. We do not know the future. We can be 100% sure or
certain about the past and the present. But we can never be
100% certain about the future. In English there are several
structures and tenses to talk about the future. It is usually
the degree of certainty about the future that decides our
choice of structure or tense.

Although we often talk about "future
tenses", technically there are no future
tenses in English—only different ways of talking
about the future, using special constructions,
other tenses or modal
verbs. | |
