The Future Perfect Tense

11. The Future Perfect Tense

         The Future Perfect Tense memiliki dua kata pokok yang dapat diidentifikasi fungsi dan kegunaannya berdasarkan nama tenses ini. Kata-kata tersebut adalah future yang berarti di masa yang akan datang dan perfect disini berarti (sudah) sempurna terjadi. Jadi kita dapat menyimpulkan bahwa tenses ini menyatakan tindakan yang sudah sempurna terjadi/dilakukan di masa depan. Dan si penutur dalam kalimatnya menekankan pada terselesaikannya suatu kegiatan dan akibatnya.             

           Formasi kalimat positif tersusun dari kata kerja bantu will atau shall setelah subyek, yang diikuti have dan kata kerja ketiga (past participle). Pembentukan kalimat negatif dangan menambahkan not setelah will atau shall (won’t / shan’t) dan interogatifnya dengan menempatkan kata kerja bantu tersebut di depan subyeknya.

Pola Kalimat:  

(+) S + will/shall + have + V3 + O/Adv. (-)  S +  will/shall + not + have + V3 + O/Adv. (?) Will/Shall + S + have + V3 + O/Adv.
