Funktion
Liksom future perfect simple, används den här formen för att föreställa oss vid en tidpunkt i framtiden då vi tittar tillbaka. Den syftar på händelser eller ageranden vid en tidpunkt som ligger mellan nutid och ofullbordade ageranden vid en obestämd tidpunkt i framtiden. Den används oftast tillsammans med ett tidsuttryck..
