used to talk about something which
will, or won’t, be finished or completed
by a certain time in the future

the past forms of the various future structures,
namely should/would instead of shall/will,
was/were going to instead of am/are/is going
to, the past progressive instead of the present
progressive, was/were to instead of are/is to:
- Example:
- He said he would send them a postcard The
ceremony was beginning at 7 p.m. They were
going to argue again
- He said he would send them a postcard The
ceremony was beginning at 7 p.m. They were
going to argue again
