Good morning, good afternoon and good evening! Welcome to Smashing English! Before we go any
further be sure to subscribe because we make new videos all the time and I don't want you
to miss any! So with that said let's get on with the video! Because although it was fabulous I'm
guessing you might need a bit more explanation on how to make the future perfect, so let's just
clarify some of the lyrics. So- how to use the future perfect. In the song it says if you want to
talk about something that will be completed before a specific time in the future you use the future
perfect, so let me just expand that a little bit, so we think about a specific time in the future,
let's say 2023, okay? 2023 is a specific time in the future. Now I want to think about the things
that haven't happened yet, not happened yet, but I know they will happen before 2023 and they will
be done before 2023, those are the things that we are talking about when we use the future perfect.
Okay so let's say next Monday, next Monday has not happened yet, it is a specific time in the future,
now another thing that hasn't happened yet is me cleaning the house, I have not cleaned the house
but I know I will clean the house in the future and it will be done before next Monday happens,
so this is a perfect time for the future perfect and like we learned in the song if you want to
make the future perfect you take the subject so in this case it's I, then the word 'will' then 'have'
then the past participle- by Monday I will have cleaned my house, I will have cleaned my house
before Monday or I will have cleaned my house by Monday or if you're feeling pessimistic and you
want to say the negative you just put in 'not' in between will and have I will not cleaned my
house before Monday so don't come around or you can turn it into 'won't', I won't have cleaned
my house before Monday because I'm busy and if you want to make it a question, you simply swap
the subject and the will, will I have cleaned the house before Monday? Oh I don't know. So
to practice this tense I want you to think about a timeline of your life think about your future
timeline choose a specific time in the future this could be next Monday this could be next year this
could be 10 years from now, choose a specific time then think about all the things that you
know will be completed before that specific time in the future, future events that will be
done before that specific time. I hope this makes the future perfect a little bit clearer for you,
