In the case of the present perfect the second event is always &quot;now&quot;. I had been vaccinated before I visited Africa. I have been vaccinated for my visit to Africa. I will have been vaccinated before I visit Africa. With future perfect the first event occurs between the present and the second event.http://www.englishforums.com/English/FuturePerfectPastPerfectTense/jjdnk/post.htmFri, 26 Jun 2009 22:15:03 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:797004Anonymous1http://www.englishforums.com/English/FuturePerfectPastPerfectTense/jjdnk/post.htmhttp://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-797004.xmlSo I&#39;m a little confused about the future pefect tense. My Latin teacher explained it like this. I&#39;m not sure if the tenses are the same in latin as in english but I&#39;m trying to understand what it is in English grammar. Pluperfect perfect future perfect __ Past Present Future So future perfect is a completed action so it occurs before the present, so basically in the past. Am I understanding this correctly? And pluperfect is before an already completed action right?
