未来進行形(Future Progressive)
未来進行形は、将来のある特定の時点で進行中の行動を表します。将来の行動の進行中という特性を強調します。
未来進行形はwill be + 動詞の-ing形で構成されます。すべての主語(I, you, he, she, it, we, they)に同じ形を使います。
作り方
肯定文
未来進行形をwill be + 動詞-ingで作ります。短縮形('ll)は話し言葉では一般的です。
| 完全形 | 短縮形 |
|---|---|
| I will be reading at 8pm | I'll be reading at 8pm |
| You will be travelling next week | You'll be travelling next week |
| He will be working late tomorrow | He'll be working late tomorrow |
| She will be studying at the library | She'll be studying at the library |
| It will be raining at midnight | It'll be raining at midnight |
| We will be watching the film at 7pm | We'll be watching the film at 7pm |
| They will be playing football in the afternoon | They'll be playing football in the afternoon |
否定文
'will'の後に'not'を加えて否定文を作ります。短縮形'won't'がよく使われます。
| 完全形 | 短縮形 |
|---|---|
| I will not be reading at 8pm | I won't be reading at 8pm |
| You will not be travelling next week | You won't be travelling next week |
| He will not be working late tomorrow | He won't be working late tomorrow |
| She will not be studying at the library | She won't be studying at the library |
| It will not be raining at midnight | It won't be raining at midnight |
| We will not be watching the film at 7pm | We won't be watching the film at 7pm |
| They will not be playing football in the afternoon | They won't be playing football in the afternoon |
はい/いいえの質問
'will'を主語の前に置いて質問を形成します。

- When will he be working late?
- Who will she be meeting at the library?
- Why will it be raining at midnight?
