Simple Future Tense
Subject + will + verb1+ object + modifier
Subject + [(is/am/are/) going to] + verb1+ object + modifier Subject + (is/am/are/) + (verb1+ing)+ object + modifier Note:
•
In American English, auxiliary shall (i.e. sepupunya will) sudah sangat jarang digunakan.Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini tidak membahas penggunaan shall.•
Pola yang ketiga ini sama dengan Present continuous tense. Penggunaannya khusus untuk menyatakan aktivitas yang direncanakan akan dilakukan. (Lihat penggunaan simple future tense yang kedua).Contoh:
1. Farmers in Jati Bali will grow rice crops next month. (Petani-petani di Jati Bali akan bercocok tanam padi bulan depan).
2. Some students are going to conduct research on vegetative plant propagations next semester. (Beberapa siswa akan melakukan penelitian pada perbanyakan tanaman vegetatif semester depan).
3. Transpiration will start to increase tomorrow morning. (Transpirasi akan mulai meningkat besok pagi).
Penggunaan Simple Future Tense
Simple Future Tense digunakan untuk menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang akan terjadi/dilakukan di waktu yang akan datang, apakah 10 menit atau 1 jam yang akan datang, besok, lusa, minggu depan, bulan depan, tahun depan, dan seterusnya. Jika past tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas setelah now (past time), simple future tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas
sebelum now (future time).
Berikut adalah 5 kategori penggunaan Simple Future Tense, yaitu:
1. Untuk menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang diprediksi akan terjadi/dilakukan. Contoh:
1.

Modifier of time (keterangan waktu)yang umum digunakan pada Simple Future Tense dapat berupa:

singgle word : tomorrow (besok), soon (segera), tonight (sebentar malam). Note:Tonight bermakna future time jika pada saat mengekspresikan suatu kejadian/aktivitas belum malam (i.e. baru jam 5 sore, 2 sore, atau masih 10 pagi ect). Tetapi jika misalnya pada jam 8 malam anda sedang berduaan dengan pacar, tonight berarti malam ini (i.e. bermakna now). I am with my boy-/girlfriend tonight. I am so happy. Tonight is one of my greatest nights in my whole life.2.
phrase : next week (minggu depan), next month (bulan depan), next year (tahun depan), etc.3.

Penggunaan future continuous tense pada prinsipnya sama dengan past continuous tense. Yang membedakan adalah jika past continuous tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang sedang
berlangsung in the past, future continuous tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang sedang
berlangsung in the future. Pembicara tahu bahwa suatu kejadian/aktivitas akan sedang berlangsung karena kejadian/aktivitas tersebut telah direncanakan (bukan karena prediksi) atau karena merupakan regular happening/habitual action.
Untuk lebih memahami perbedaan antara kedua tensis ini, tulisan ini dibuat dengan menggunakan konsep dan contoh-contoh pada past continuous tense. Dan tentu saja, keterangan waktunya telah digeser dari past time menjadi future time.
Future Continuous Tense digunakan
1. Untuk menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang akan sedang terjadi pada waktu yang spesifik di masa depan. Spesifikasi waktu biasanya dinyatakan dengan jam (i.e. jam berapa kejadian itu berlangsung). Sebagai ilustrasi, perhatikan contoh kalimat 1 di bawah. Sebagai seorang ibu, saya tahu rutinitas putri saya. Jam 3 -5 belajar atau ngerjakan PR, jam 8-9 nonton TV, 9-11 bejalar lagi. Karena sudah tahu persis rutinitas putri saya tersebut, saya berani bilang bahwa pada jam 8.30 nanti, dia sedang nonton TV. Logika yang sama juga berlaku pada contoh kalimat 2 – 8.
Contoh:
1.
My daughter will be watching TV at eight thirty tonight. (Putri saya akan sedang nonton TV jam 8.30 malam ini).2.
She will be copying the materials at 10 o’clock this morning. (Dia akan sedang memfotokopi materi jam 10 pagi ini). Asumsi, sekarang belum jam 10 pagi.3.
I will be discussing English with my classmates at 2 p.m. next Friday. (Saya akan sedang mendiskusikan bahasa Inggris dengan teman-teman kelas saya jam 2 sore Jumat depan).4.
I will be being busy at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. (Saya akan sedang sibuk jam 8 pagi besok).5.
They will be being very happy at 9 o’clock next Saturday night. (Mereka akan sedang sangat bahagia jam 9 malam minggu depan). Asumsi, mereka baru jadian (pacaran).6.
This time next year, she will be studying Economics at the University of Toronto.(Bulan ini tahun depan, dia akan sedang belajar/kuliah Ekonomi di Universitas Toronto).7.
They will be taking an English exam at 10 a.m. tomorrow. (Mereka akan sedang mengikuti ujian bahasa Inggris jam 10 besok pagi).8.
We will be watching a football game at 11 p.m. tonight. (Kami akan sedang nonton pertandingan sepak bola jam 11 malam ini).2. Untuk menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang sedang terjadi/berlangsung di masa depan, yang terinterupsi oleh kejadian yang lain. Dalam hal ini, formulanya adalah sebagai berikut:
When + subject1 + simple present tense, subject2 + future continuous Subject1 + future continuous + when + subject2 + simple present tense
Note: Kejadian/aktivitas yang menginterupsi dinyatakan dalam simple present tense dan berfungsi sebagai keterangan waktu; Sisipkan tanda koma, jika letaknya mendahului future continuous. Koma tidak diperlukan jika ditempatkan setelah future continuous.
Contoh:
1.
When I arrive home, my daughter will be watching TV. (Ketika saya tiba di rumah, putri saya akan sedang nonton TV). My daughter punya habit nonton TV.2.
When I call him tonight, he will be playing card with his friends. (Ketika saya telpon dia malam ini, dia sedang main kartu dengan teman-temannya). He punya habit main kartu sama teman-temannya tiap malam.3.

When I go to her house on Saturday night, she will be being with her boyfriend. (Jika saya pergi ke rumahnya malam minggu ini, dia akan sedang bersama dengan pacarnya).3. Juga digunakan untuk menyatakan dua kejadian yang terjadi pada saat bersamaan di masa depan. Dalam hal ini, gunakan formula berikut:
While + subject1 + present continuous, subject2 + future continuous Subject1 + future continuous + while + subject2 + present continuous Contoh:
1.
While I am typing another note tonight, my family will be watching TV in the family room. (Sementara saya sedang mengetik catatan yang lain malam ini, keluarga saya akan sedang nonton TV di ruang keluarga).2.

We will be smoking while others are drinking. (Kami akan sedang merokok sementara yang lain akan sedang minum).6.
John will be washing dishes while Jane is making dinner. (John akan sedang mencuci piring sementara Jane sedang masak untuk makan malam).REMEMBER: Hindari menggunakan keterangan waktu “While + future continous tense“. Tetapi, kalau keterangan waktunya tidak menggunakan “while“, barulah tiap clause dari kejadian yang sedang berlangsung secara bersamaan ini dinyatakan dengan future continuous tense.
1.
Sorry, we can’t practice our band in my house tonight. My dad will be having his colleagues over and my brother will be studying for his final exam. (Maaf, kita tidak bisa latihan band di rumah saya malam ini. Bapak saya akan sedang menjamu kolega-koleganya di rumah dan kakak saya akan sedang belajar untuk ujian akhirnya.2.

Ketika saya tiba di sana, Budi dan bandnya akan sedang perform. Bebeerapa orang akan sedang berdansa, beberapa akan sedang minum dan merokok, dan yang lainnya akan sedang ngobrol saja).4. Untuk menyatakan suatu hal atau kejadian yang diyakini/benar-benar akan segera terjadi. Contoh:
1.
I think the sun will be shining soon. (Saya kira matahari akan segera sedang bersinar).2.
Oh no! The clouds are very dark and thick. It will be raining soon. (Oh tidak! Awan sangat gelap dan tebal. Akan segera sedang turun hujan).Negative Form
Bentuk negatif dari kalimat dalam Future Continuous Tense dibuat dengan menambahkan ‘not’ setelah auxilliary will, atau setelah is/am/are, seperti yang terlihat dalam formula berikut:
Subject + will + not + be + (verb1+ing) + object + modifier
Subject + [(is/am/are/) + not + going to] + be +(verb1+ing) + object + modifier Note: Will not dapat dikontraksi menjadi won’t.
Contoh:
1.
My daughter will not be watching TV at eight thirty tonight. (Putri saya tidak akan sedang nonton TV jam 8.30 malam ini).2.
She will not be copying the materials at 10 o’clock this morning. (Dia tidak akan sedang memfotokopi materi jam 10 pagi ini).3.

Perhatikan pola dan ketiga contoh di atas! Apakah beda antara future perfect tense dengan present perfect tense? Perbedaannya tidak banyak, bukan? Konsep penggunaannya hampir sama dengan present perfect tense. Cuma, batas akhir dari kejadian/aktivitas untuk tensis ini adalah future time, sedangkan batas akhir untuk present perfect tense adalah now.
Penggunaan future perfect tense, antara lain:
1. Untuk menyatakan prediksi bahwa kejadian/aktivitas akan sudah terjadi/sudah selesai dilakukan sebelum atau hingga batas waktu tertentu di masa mendatang.
Note: Jika menggunakan time clause, nyatakan dalam simple present tense. Misalnya: when the first half is over (pada contoh 2), by the time we get to the airport (pada contoh 3), etc.

Subject + would + verb1+ object + modifier
Subject + [(was/were) going to] + verb1+ object + modifier Contoh:
1.
Farmers in Jati Bali would grow rice crops last month. (Petani-petani di Jati Bali akan bercocok tanam padi bulan lalu).2.
Some students would conduct research on vegetative plant propagations last semester. (Beberapa siswa akan melakukan penelitian pada perbanyakan tanaman vegetatif semester lalu).3.
Transpiration would start to increase at 8 a.m. this morning. (Transpirasi akan mulai meningkat jam 8 tadi pagi).Penggunaan Past Future Tense
Pada prinsipnya, past future tense mirip dengan simple future tense dan ketentuan-ketentuan yang berlaku pada simple future tense umumnya juga berlaku pada past future tense. Tetapi, karena bergulirnya waktu, simple future tense bergeser dari future time ke past time menjadi past future tense. Untuk menjelaskan ini, di sini akan digunakan konsep dan contoh-contoh pada future tense. Past Future Tense, seperti halnya simple future tense, dapat digunakan dalam 5 kategori, yaitu:
1. Untuk menyatakan kembali kejadian/aktivitas yang pernah diprediksi akan terjadi/dilakukan pada saat tertentu di masa lampau.
Untuk memahami perbedaann past future tense dengan simple future tense, mari kita perhatikan contoh-contoh kalimat yang diberikan pada simple future tense berikut ini:
1.
According to the weather forecast, it will rain tomorrow. (Menurut ramalam cuaca, hujan akan turun besok).2.
None of us have done the homework the teacher told us to do. He will be very disappointed when he finds out.3.
Ronny is going to come to my house at 7 o’clock tonight. I think Jeny, Ronny’s girlfriend,will come too.4.
I will probably see Janet at the cafeteria at lunch.5.
The damage we do to our forest today will result in severe catastrophes sooner or later in the future.Perhatikan contoh 1 di atas dan anggap saja sekarang adalah tanggal 2 Mei!
•
According to the weather forecast, it will rain tomorrow. (Menurut ramalam cuaca, hujan akan turun besok).Dalam bahasa Indonesia, kalimat ini juga berarti:
•
Menurut ramalan cuaca, hujan akan turun tanggal 3 Mei.Kemudian, karena waktu terus bergulir, anggap sekarang sudah tanggal 4 Mei. Berarti, yang diprediksi tadi (i.e. hujan akan turun) sudah dalam past time, yaitu “kemarin”. Jadi prediksi tadi harus dinyatakan dalam past future tense menjadi:
1.
According to the weather forecast, it would rain yesterday. Atau, According to the weather forecast, it was going to rain yesterday. Dan begitu juga dengan kalimat-kalimat 2-5 di atas seiring dengan bergulirnya waktu berturut-turut akan menjadi:2.
We thought that he would be very disappointed when we didn’t do the homework two days ago. Atau, We thought that he was going to be very disappointed when we didn’t do the homework two days ago.3.
Ronny came to my house at 7 p.m. two days ago. I thought Jeny, Ronny’s girlfriend,would come too but she didn’t. Atau, I thought Jeny, Ronny’s girlfriend, was going to come too but she didn’t.4.
I would probably see Janet at the cafeteria at lunch. Atau, I was probably going to see Janet at the cafeteria at lunch.5.
The damage we do to our forest today will result in severe catastrophes sooner or later in the future.Note: Jika yang diprediksi pada saat pengungkapan kembali masih in future time, (dalam analogi di atas, masih belum tanggal 4 Mei), tetap gunakan simple future tense. (Lihat contoh 5 di atas dan contoh 4 di bawah).
2. Untuk menyatakan kembali kejadian/aktivitas yang direncanakan akan terjadi/dilakukan pada saat tertentu di masa lampau.
Dengan menggunakan analogi pada kategori 1, kalimat dalam simple future tense berikut:
1.
Ronny is going to come to my house at 7 o’clock tonight.2.
He has an appointment. He is going to meet his business partner at noon.3.
I am going to go to the shopping. Do you want to go with me?4.
The next world cup championship is going to be held in South Africa in 2010.seiring dengan berulirnya waktu akan dinyatakan dalam past future tense menjadi:
1.
Ronny was going to come to my house at 7 p.m. two days ago but he couldn’t come because of the pouring rain. Atau, Ronny would come to my house at 7 p.m. two days ago but he couldn’t come because of the pouring rain.2.
He was going to meet his business partner at noon two days ago but he suddenly got sick just half an hour before the meeting. Atau, He would meet his business partner at noon two days ago but he suddenly got sick just half an hour before the meeting.3.
I was going to go to the shopping mall when I asked whether you wanted to go with me two days ago. Atau, I would go to the shopping mall when I asked whether you wanted to go with me two days ago.4.
The next world cup championship is going to be held in South Africa in 2010. Kalimat ini tidak berubah karena aktivitas dari yang direncanakan masih akan dilakukan tahun depan.5.
He was going to leave for Bali yesterday morning but the flight was cancelled. Atau, He would leave for Bali yesterday morning but the flight was cancelled.Note: a). Dalam past future tense, pola yang pertama juga bisa digunakan untuk menyatakan rencana. b). Jika yang direncanakan itu terjadi/dilakukan, maknanya sudah berubah menjadi kejadian/aktivitas yang terjadi in the past (past tense) atau sedang berlangsung in the past (past continuous tense), tergantung keterangan waktunya.

Penggunaan past future continuous tense pada prinsipnya sama dengan future continuous tense. Yang membedakan adalah jika future continuous tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang akan sedang berlangsung in the future, past future continuous tense menyatakan kejadian/aktivitas yang akan sedang berlangsung in the past. Dengan kata lain, past future continuous tense adalah mengungkapkan kembali prediksi atau rencana yang akan sedang terjadi/dilakukan, dan prediksi/rencana tersebut sekarang sudah bergeser dari future time ke past time.
Untuk lebih memahami perbedaan antara kedua tensis ini, silakan gunakan kembali analogi yang digunakan pada past future tense. Tulisan ini juga dibuat dengan menggunakan konsep dan contoh-contoh pada future continuous tense. Perhatikan dan bandingkan perbedaan waktunya.
Past Future Continuous Tense digunakan:
1. Untuk menyatakan kembali kejadian/aktivitas yang diprediksi/direncanakan akan sedang terjadi/dilakukan pada waktu yang spesifik di masa lampau. Note: Spesifikasi waktu biasanya dinyatakan dengan menyatakan jam (i.e. jam berapa kejadian/aktivitas itu diprediksi/direncanakan akan berlangsung/dilakukan) dan time clause.

Note: Kejadian/aktivitas yang menginterupsi dinyatakan dalam simple past tense dan berfungsi sebagai keterangan waktu; Sisipkan tanda koma, jika letaknya sebelum past future continuous. Namun, koma tidak diperlukan jika ditempatkan setelah past future continuous.
