Examples:

Positive: I will (I'll) have worked , she will (she'll) have slept, they will (they'll) have eaten

We use the future perfect simple for an action which will be completed by a certain future time.

B. The Future Perfect Continuous

(a) Structure:

will have been + present participle (-ing verb)

No passive form!

Examples

Positive: she will have been working / they will have been studying / I will have been learning

Negative: she won't have been working / they won't have been studying / I won't have been learning

Questions: Will she have been working? / Will they have been studying? / Will you have been learning?

• By the end of June, we will have been living in London for eight years.
• I will have been learning English for five years by the end of the school year.

Reported Speech 3 - Reporting Questions

 

In Reported Questions, we use affirmative word order and the question mark is omitted.

• To report a Wh-question, we use "ask" followed by the question word (who, what, where etc).
• When there is no question word in direct questions, we use  "if" or "whether".
• Pronouns, possessive adjectives, time expressions and tenses change as in statements.

Examples

(1)  Direct Question : He asked, "What time is it?"

      Reported Question: He asked what time it was. NOT He asked what was the time.

 

(2)  Direct Question: He asked me, "Do you know her?"

      Reported Question: He asked me if / whether I knew her.

Reported Speech 1 - Reporting Statements

A. REPORTING STATEMENTS

We use Direct Speech to quote someone’s words as they were spoken. It is important to use quotation marks.

Example:  She said: “I’ll call you tomorrow”

We use Reported or Indirect Speech to report the exact meaning of someone’s words. In this case we don’t use quotation marks.

Example: She said (that) she would call me the following day.

Note the different ways we use SAY and TELL discussed earlier on this blog.

Reporting Statements:

• To report statements we need a reporting verb such as say / tell / explain / promise / advise etc followed by “that” which can be omitted in spoken English.

Joanna said (that) she had already been to Paris.

• Sometimes pronouns and possessive adjectives change to make good sense:

(1) Direct Speech: Tom said, “ I never work on Saturdays.”

Reported Speech: Tom said he never worked on Saturdays.”

(2) Direct Speech:  Maria said, “My car has broken down.”

Reported Speech: Maria said her car had broken down.

• When the reporting verb is in the past tense, tenses change as follows:

DIRECT  SPEECH	REPORTED SPEECH
Present Simple	Past Simple
“I love science fiction films,” she said.	She said that she loved science fiction films.
Present Continuous	Past Continuous
“My sister is learning French,” he said.	He said (that) his sister was learning French.
Past Simple	Past Perfect /Past Simple
“Julia spent all her money,” he said. “I always carried an umbrella when I lived in London,” he said	He said that Julia had spent all her money. He said he always carried an umbrella when he lived in London.
Future Simple	Conditional
“I’ll do my homework later,” she said.	She said (that) she would do her homework later.
Present Perfect	Past Perfect

• When the reporting verb is in the past tense, time expressions change as follows:

DIRECT SPEECH	REPORTED SPEECH
Today	That day
Tonight	That night
This week / month / year	That week / month / year
Now	Then / at that time / at once
Yesterday	The day before
Last night / week / month	The previous night / week / month
Two years / days / weeks ago	Two years / days / weeks before

Dad says (that) he is tired.

1. 2.     The reporting verb is in the past tense but the meaning refers to something which never changes or is always true:
