The Future Tense, the Imperative Mood, and Exclamations

The Future Perfect Tense by Ronald Glenn Wrigley

The future perfect is a compound tense used to express an event that will have happened before something else happens. It can also be used to express probability — something that must have already happened. It is formed by pairing the future tense of the verbs avere or essere with the past participle of the main verb. Let's review the future tense of the verbs avere and essere.

Table 13-7

avere	essere
io	avrò	sarò
tu	avrai	sarai
lui/lei/Lei	avrà	sarà
noi	avremo	saremo
voi	avrete	sarete
loro/Loro	avranno	saranno

Tu sarai già partito quando io arriverò.	You will have already left when I arrive.
Loro avranno mangiato.	They must have eaten.
