6.3.1 The Future
PDE has no shortage of ways to express future meaning – witness the examples in (25).
(25)a The next guard arrives at 12.15. (BNC)
b I have to go. My mother is leaving tonight. (BNC)
c I've got some news for you. I'm about to sell the house… (BNC)
d Whatever you advise I shall do my humble best to concur. (BNC)
e Mrs Duncan will take you up to your rooms. (BNC)
f You're going to become a poet, Shih Hammond. (BNC)
The PDE examples represent a historically layered system. The simple present with future reference in (25a) – though today much more restricted in use – is an OE inheritance, as shown in (26).
(26) Ic arise of deaðe on ðæm þriddan dæge
I arise from death on the third day (ÆCHom.I,10(259.27)
‘I will rise from the dead on the third day’
