Future Progressive Use: * to talk about actions that'll be in progress at a certain time in the future.   It helps to express the future as a matter of course.   Couple of words are for instance: next week, tonight, later on Jan. 6th.   ..., just about every action having its course in the future. Example: We'll be boarding the flight at 2 pm. * to underline overlapping actions. Example: They'll be waiting when we arrive. used with: when + Present simple + at (time) Form: Personal pronouns + will be + Verb-ing Examples: - She will be taking a nap at this very time tomorrow. - They will be celebrating their diamond wedding anniversary in September. - will be talking to my mom in an hour. - We will be working on the project tomorrow. - Will you be going to her by bus?

The past perfect continuous is also known as Past Perfect Progressive Tense, and is used for an action that began before a certain point in the past and continued up to that time.  Time reference is found in these sentences which gives an idea that action has continued from some time. Examples: At that time he had been writing a book for two months. When she came to the university in last summer, her biology Lecturer had already been teaching there for five years.

Must vs. have to Both Must and have to express obligation or necessity, but there are some small differences: - We use must when the speaker thinks it is necessary or important to do an action: Must you go? ~ Yes, I must. You must go. (= It is important that you go.) - We use have to to talk about an action that is necessary because of rules or laws, or because someone obliges us to do it:  Doctors sometimes have to work on Sunday. (It is in the rules of their work.)

The past perfect simple is used to describe one action that happened before another action in the past. In many cases a complete sentence is written in two parts with two different tenses: The past perfect simple, to refer to the action that happened first or earlier The past simple to refer to the action that happened second or later. Sometimes the past perfect simple is used on its own and the action that took place afterwards is understood.        After She had finished her work, she went to lunch.       (First she finished her work and then she went to eat lunch.) The formula for the past perfect tense is Subject + had + past participle.

The pas simple is the form of a verb used to describe an action that happened before the present time and is no longer happening.  For regular verbs, we add -ed to the base form of the verb (work–worked) or -d if the verb already ends in e (move–moved). Many verbs are irregular. Each one has to be learnt. The verb form is the same for all persons (I, you, she, he, it, we, they); Questions and negatives sentences are made with irregular verbs in the same ways as for regular verbs.

The Present Continuous is used:  - for things that are happening at the moment of speaking - for temporary situations, even if the action isn’t happening at this moment - for permanent situations lasting longer - for temporary or new habits - for habits that are not regular, happening very often  - for definite future arrangements.
