Future in the Past
Future in the Past is used to express verbs, whose action or condition was to happen, according to a specific moment in the past. It doesn't matter if the action has successfully concluded before the moment of speaking, if it is still to happen in the future or if it got "canceled" and has never happened, nor will it ever happen.
The forming of the Future in the Past tense is done by adding the following before the verb:
1. "щях да" + verb for first person, singular.
2. "щеше да" + verb() for second person, singular.
3. "щеше да" + verb for third person, singular.
4. "щяхме да" + verb for first person, plural.
5. "щяхте да" + verb for second person, plural.
6. "щяхa да" + verb for third person, plural.
Like with the Future Simple tense, the verb remains in the Present tense.
