What is the tense of this question?
What will you do when this course finishes?
- A
Present
- B
Past
- C
Future
- D
None of these options are correct
This sentence is in the future tense because it refers to an action that will happen later, after the course finishes.
It is not present tense because the question asks about an action that will happen after the course finishes, which is in the future. The use of “will” indicates that the speaker is inquiring about plans or actions yet to occur, so present tense would be incorrect.
It is not past tense because the action being asked about has not happened yet. Past tense would refer to something already completed, but the question is about future plans after the course finishes.
Yes, this sentence is in the future tense because it refers to an action that will happen later, after the course finishes.
This option is incorrect as option C is correct.
