Future Continuous (Future Progressive)
Le Future Continuous décrit les actions qui seront en cours à un moment spécifique dans l'avenir. Il met l'accent sur la nature continue de l'action future.
Nous formons le Future Continuous avec will be + la forme -ing du verbe. La même forme est utilisée pour tous les sujets (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).
