Future Continuous

The Future Continuous tense expresses action at a particular moment in the future. The action will have started before that moment but it will not have finished at that moment. For example, tomorrow I will start work at 2pm and stop work at 6pm: At 4pm, I will be working.

The future continuous refers to an unfinished action or event that will be in progress at a time later than now. By Christmas, I will be skiing like a pro.

When talking about the future use "will" for sudden decisions and for making requests.
