Future Perfect Continuous

The future perfect continuous tense is formed with "will have been" plus the present participle of the main verb. It is used to show that an action will continue up until another time or action in the future. Some examples of its use are to talk about how long an activity will have been happening before a future event, and to show cause and effect relationships between future actions where one will have been ongoing. The future perfect continuous follows the same rules as other perfect and continuous tenses regarding time expressions and uses.
