The Future Progressive tense in Slovenian grammar, more commonly known as the Future Imperfect, is predominantly used to express an action that you anticipate will be ongoing in the future. Whether these actions have definite start or end times is not relevant; the emphasis is on the continuity of the action. This tense is often used for predicting or guessing about future events. It is formed by the future tense of the auxiliary verb “biti” (to be) and the active participle.
