When talking about virtual reality gaming, you might need to brag about the levels you will have beaten or the gear you will have unlocked by a certain time. To state actions that will be completed before a specific point in the future, Farsi uses the Future Perfect tense.
Forming the Future Perfect Tense
The Future Perfect (زمان آینده کامل) is built using two parts:
- The past participle of your main verb (the past stem + ه, such as ساخته or باخته).
- The conjugated future tense of بودن (to be).
Here is the future conjugation of بودن:
| Pronoun | Future of بودن |
|---|---|
| من | خواهم بود |
| تو | خواهی بود |
| او | خواهد بود |
| ما | خواهیم بود |
| شما | خواهید بود |
| آنها | خواهند بود |
Notice how the past participle stays the same; only the auxiliary verb (بودن) changes to match the subject.
| Without the virtual headset, you will have lost the game. | بدون هدست مجازی، بازی را باخته خواهی بود.bedun-e hedset-e majâzi, bâzi râ bâkhte khâhi bud. |
| By tomorrow, I will have built the new avatar on this console. | تا فردا، آواتار جدید را روی این کنسول ساخته خواهم بود.tâ fardâ, âvâtâr-e jadid râ ruye in konsol sâkhte khâham bud. |
Compound Sentences
If a sentence has multiple clauses, conjugate the auxiliary verb for each respective subject.
| The enemy will have attacked your avatar, but we will have saved it. | دشمن به آواتار تو حمله کرده خواهد بود، اما ما نجاتش داده خواهیم بود.doshman be âvâtâr to hamle karde khâhad bud, ammâ mâ nejâtash dâde khâhim bud. |

Time Markers
The Future Perfect is often paired with time markers like تا (by / until) or وقتی (when) to establish the specific deadline in the future.
| By next year, the company will have developed this offline hologram. | تا سال آینده، شرکت این هولوگرام آفلاین را توسعه داده خواهد بود.tâ sâle âyande, sherkat in hologrâm âflâyn râ towse'e dâde khâhad bud. |
