Future Indefinite Tense употребляется:

1. Для выражения действия, которое совершится в будущем. Может обозначать как однократное, так и повторяющееся действие. Future Indefinite Tense переводится на русский язык будущим временем глагола совершенного и не совершенного вида, в зависимости от общего смысла предложения:

Не will return to Moscow Он вернется в Москву через

in a few days. несколько дней.

We shall not see him til! Monday. Мы не увидим его до понедельника. They will take English lessons Они будут брать английские уроки twice a week. два раза в неделю.

Примечание. Future Indefinite не употребляется в придаточных предложениях времени и условия:

Не will send us a telegram as soon as the steamer arrives. If I receive a letter from him, I' II let you know.

Он пошлет нам телеграмму, как только

прибудет пароход.

 

Если я получу письмо от него,

я дам вам знать.

 

 Наряду с Future Indefinite, будущее время (действие) выражается также посредством:

оборота

а) to be going to... - собираться сделать что-либо.

I am going to send him a telegram. Я собираюсь послать ему телеграмму.

(Я пошлю ему телеграмму.)

г) shall/will + модель, представленная в пункте б)

Не will be meeting us at the station. Он нас встретит (будет встречать) на

вокзале.

I shall be writing to him tomorrow. Я напишу (буду писать) ему завтра.

Эти варианты выражения будущего действия очень часто употребляются в разговорной речи вместо Future Indefinite Tense. Особенно часто употребляется оборот to be going to для выражения намерения какого-нибудь лица совершить действие или уверенности в его совершении.

If and When

В придаточных предложениях времени или условия для выражения будущих действий употребляется present simple, а не future simple.

When (if) he reads this book he will give it to me.

Когда (если) он прочтет эту книгу, он даст ее мне.

I shall send him a telegram, if I do Я пошлю ему телеграмму, если не

 not receive an answer to my letter, получу ответа на свое письмо.

• if you see ... / if I am ... etc. for the future. For example:

- If you see Ann this evening, can you ask her to phone me?

We say: if you see (not 'if you will see'), if I am (not 'if I will be'). Use the present (not 'will) after if:

- If I'm late this evening, don't wait for me. (not 'If I will be late')

- What shall we do if it rains? (not 'if it will rain')

- If I don't feel well tomorrow, I'll stay at home.
