Futur dans les subordonnées de temps? Bien qu'il s'agisse d'un événement futur, l'anglais utilise souvent le présent ou le present perfect immédiatement après 'when,' 'as soon as,' 'after.' Ex. When she leaves, you will have more time . ou When she has left, you will have more time. 1- 'I will phone you when I get home' est une phrase en 2 parties : la partie principale ( 'I will phone you' ) et la partie subordonnée introduite par WHEN ( 'when I get home' ). 2- Le temps est le futur MAIS l'anglais utilise un PRESENT dans la subordonnée. 3- Un autre exemple ? ' What will you do when you are in the USA ?' 4- La même chose se produit avec WHILE, BEFORE, AFTER, AS SOON AS, UNTIL ou TILL. 5- Exemple ? 'I am going to sleep a lot when I am on holiday'. 6- Quand on utilise le present perfect, une chose doit être réalisée avant l'autre. ( => Les 2 choses ne peuvent se produire ensemble ). 7- Exemples ? a- 'When I have seen Betty, we'll have our tea.' ( = Je verrai Betty et ensuite nous prendrons notre thé.) / b- 'When I see Betty, I will ask her to have tea with us.' ( = Je verrai Betty et je lui demanderai - en même temps - de prendre le thé avec nous. ) Test : appliquer ces 'règles' aux phrases proposées => mettre le présent ou le present perfect dans la subordonnée.
