The Futur<\/em><\/strong> II is used on different occasions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

a) You use Futur II to refer to actions that will take place in the future and that will have been completed in the future. You form sentences with the conjugated form of the auxiliary verb werden<\/em><\/strong> (will), the past form of the verb, and the unconjugated form the auxiliary haben<\/em><\/strong> (to have) or sein<\/em><\/strong> (to be).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Bald wird<\/strong> sie es geschafft<\/strong> haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3) Heute in einem Jahr werden<\/strong> wir schon unseren Urlaub in Australien verbracht<\/strong> haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

(A year from today we will already have had our vacation in Australia.)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4) In zwei Wochen werden<\/strong> wir die Pr\u00fcfungen geschrieben haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

(In two weeks we will have written the tests.)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

b) You can use the Futur II in order to express the assumption that an action of the past has been completed. In such statements, the past has to be stressed by using adverbs that refer to the past, like: gestern (yesterday), vor zwei Wochen (two weeks ago), vergangenes Jahr (last year), etc.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5) Sie wird<\/strong> gestern in M\u00fcnchen angekommen sein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

[Wahrscheinlich ist sie gestern in M\u00fcnchen angekommen.]<\/p>\n

(She will have arrived in Munich yesterday.)<\/p>\n

[Probably she arrived in Munich yesterday.]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6) Er wird<\/strong> ihr das Geschenk vor einer Woche gegeben haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

[Wahrscheinlich hat er ihr das Geschenk vor einer Woche gegeben.]<\/p>\n

(He will have given her the present a week ago.)<\/p>\n

[Probably he has given her the present a week ago.]<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

c) The Futur II<\/em><\/strong> can also be replaced by the Perfekt<\/em><\/strong>, when the future is displayed with adverbs of time, for example, morgen<\/em><\/strong> (tomorrow), bald<\/em><\/strong> (soon), nachher<\/em><\/strong> (later), etc.<\/p>\n

7) Morgen um diese Zeit werden<\/strong> wir in K\u00f6ln angekommen sein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

(At this time tomorrow we will have arrived in Cologne.)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8) Bald werden<\/strong> wir es geschafft haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

(Soon we will have made it.)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

9) In einer Stunde werden<\/strong> wir unser Ziel erreicht haben<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
