Future Perfect in Spanish
el futuro compuesto
The future perfect tense used to describe actions that will have been completed by a certain point in the future.
The Futuro Compuesto (Future Perfect) is formed using the future simple of the verb "haber" (habré, habrás, habrá, habremos, habréis, habrán) and the past participle of the main verb. It is used to indicate an action that will be completed before another future action or time limit (e.g., "Para mañana lo habré terminado" - By tomorrow I will have finished it). It can also express probability or assumption about past actions (e.g., "¿Dónde habrá estado?" - Where could he have been?).
