Review: Advanced Tenses
Di akhir lesson ini, kamu bisa:
- Memilih tense lanjutan yang tepat (future continuous, future perfect, past perfect continuous, present perfect/continuous) sesuai konteks.
- Membedakan fokus proses/durasi dari fokus hasil/penyelesaian pada pasangan tense yang mirip.
Ringkasan Modul
Modul ini mendalami empat "tenses lanjutan" yang membedakan proses/durasi dari hasil/penyelesaian. Berikut rangkuman tiap lesson:
- Future Continuous:
will be + V-ing. Aksi yang akan sedang berlangsung pada momen tertentu di masa depan, aksi paralel, dan pertanyaan sopan tentang rencana. Penanda: this time tomorrow, at 5 pm tomorrow, all day, while, still.At 8 p.m. tonight I 'll be presenting to the board.
- Future Perfect:
will have + V3. Aksi yang akan sudah selesai sebelum satu titik di masa depan, atau durasi yang tercapai pada titik itu. Penanda: by + waktu, by then, by the time, before, already.By Friday I 'll have submitted the proposal.
- Past Perfect Continuous:
had been + V-ing. Menekankan durasi/proses sebuah aksi sampai titik tertentu di masa lampau, sering untuk menjelaskan sebab/hasil yang terlihat. Penanda: for, since, by the time, before.By the time the client called, we had been working for two hours.
- Present Perfect vs Present Perfect Continuous. Present Perfect (
have/has + V3) = hasil/jumlah (how many); Present Perfect Continuous (have/has + been + V-ing) = durasi/proses, sering masih berlangsung (how long). Stative verbs (know, be, have, own) selalu Present Perfect.I 've written three reports. / I 've been writing reports all day.
Benang merah: bentuk continuous (be + V-ing) menyoroti aktivitas/durasi; bentuk perfect (have/had + V3) menyoroti penyelesaian/hasil. Kata kerja keadaan (stative) tetap memakai bentuk perfect sederhana, bukan -ing.
