Lesson 12: Expressing The Future In Time Clauses
-
Use the Present Simple in Time Clauses:
- Even if the action is in the future, we use the present simple tense in the time clause.
- Example: "I will call you when I get home." (Not "when I will get home.")
- Even if the action is in the future, we use the present simple tense in the time clause.
-
