Por ejemplo, decir <span data-no-translation>\"By next year, I will save enough money\"<\/span> en lugar de lo correcto <span data-no-translation>\"By next year, I will have saved enough money.\"<\/span> El futuro perfecto hace hincapi\u00e9 en que la acci\u00f3n se haya completado antes de una fecha l\u00edmite.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Uso excesivo del futuro simple para acciones en curso:<\/strong> A veces, se utiliza el futuro simple en lugar del futuro continuo para acciones en curso.

Recuerda que el futuro continuo destaca el car\u00e1cter continuo de la acci\u00f3n.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Uso incorrecto de 'by' con el futuro continuo:<\/strong> La palabra <span data-no-translation>by<\/span> casi siempre indica el futuro perfecto, se\u00f1alando una fecha l\u00edmite de finalizaci\u00f3n. Si se utiliza con el futuro continuo, como <span data-no-translation>\"By 7 PM, I will be studying\"<\/span>, es incorrecto. En su lugar, utiliza <span data-no-translation>\"At 7 PM, I will be studying\"<\/span> o <span data-no-translation>\"By 7 PM, I will have studied for two hours.\"<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Preguntas m\u00e1s frecuentes<\/h2>\n<h3>\u00bfPuedo usar 'going to' con el futuro perfecto o el futuro continuo?<\/h3>\n<p>S\u00ed, puedes usar <span data-no-translation>going to<\/span> en lugar de <span data-no-translation>will<\/span> para ambos tiempos verbales, sobre todo cuando se habla de planes o predicciones basadas en datos actuales.
