Grammar Boost: Future Time Clauses
Getting Your Events in Order
When you are making plans for the future—especially for international meetings, business events, or travel—it’s crucial to show the exact order in which things will happen. English uses special structures called Future Time Clauses to achieve this clarity.
These clauses connect two actions in the future:
The main action (the central event you are planning, which usually uses will or another modal verb).
The time-dependent action (the task that must happen first or at the same time, which starts the time clause).
