For understanding and practicing the future continuous tense, books like "English Grammar in Use" by Raymond Murphy and "Practical English Usage" by Michael Swan are highly recommended. "Longman Dictionary of Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics" is also a good book to study Future Continuous Tense.

The basic structure is subject + will be + verb (present participle). It's used to describe an action that will be ongoing at a specific time in the future. Future Continuous Tense is not used for actions that will be finished by a specific future point.

The Future Continuous Tense talks about actions that will go on in the future as well. Also known as the Future Progressive Tense, this verb tense is the future version of the present continuous tense, which uses a similar construction. For example, “I will be watching a movie tonight.”

Subject plays a crucial role in letter writing, and while writing a letter, the candidate must write a very apt, creative, and short subject. For example, “Request for Scholarship Renewal” or “Complaint Regarding Water Supply.”

In competitive exams, just next to the question, the word count is written, however, most exams expect 150–200 words. Going beyond can cost marks and also consume a lot of time and in exams, a student needs to be time-constrained. Practice writing letters that are concise, focused, and within limits.

Yes, letter writing is still relevant, although not very popular due to the excess usage of emails and social media messages, but letter writing has its own old world charm and it gives a personal touch, which is often appreciated.

To letter-writing, students must practice by referring to solved examples and assessing the past year's question papers. While practicing, they must focus on clarity, grammar, and correct format. Use concise language and remember to proofread.

Formal letters are structured and meant for official communication, like complaints or job applications, while informal letters are casual, written to friends or family, and don't require a specific format. The main difference between the two is the tone.

Adverbs are the word that modifies the meaning of a verb, an adjective or another adverb. They tell us about how much, in what manner, how far, in what degree and to what extent. E.g. all, very, probably, very, etc.

  • Example: She learns quickly.

Adjectives are the words that add meaning to the nouns or pronouns. They simply make noun and pronoun more descriptive. E.g. beautiful, honest, brave, wealthy.

  • Example: She is a quick learner.
