What will they do in the morning? Что они будут делать утром?
They will go to school. Они пойдут в школу.
In the Russian version of the answer: "They will go to school" - the omitted subject "They" is easily guessed by the form of the verb and therefore, as a rule, is not pronounced. If you say in English: "Will go to school" (without "They"), then the omitted subject cannot be determined by the predicate will go, since other personal pronouns also agree with this form of the verb: he will go; you will go; we will go, etc.4
Tense
The tense of the verb is a grammatical category that expresses the relation of the action called the verb to the moment of speech. Real time, as in Russian, is divided into three grammatical tenses.
The present tense is a period of time that includes the moment of speech. The verb in the form of Present Tense denotes the simultaneity of the action in relation to the moment of speech.
The past tense is the length of time preceding the present that does not include the moment of speech. A verb in the Past Tense form denotes an action that precedes the moment of speech.
The future tense is the length of time that follows the present and also does not include the moment of speech. A verb in the Future Tense form denotes an action that follows in relation to the moment of speech.
In addition, in English there is also a temporary form that indicates future actions, considered from the point of view of the past. It's called - Future in the Past. This form has no equivalent in Russian language.
Aspect
In Russian, there are imperfective and perfective verbs. There is no such distinction in English, where the form of the verb does not express the completeness of the action. The specific forms in English characterize the verb not from the point of view of completeness, but from the point of view of its flow.
The Aspect category includes the Common and Continuous aspects. In addition, in English there is a category of the perfect, which is referred to the system of grammatical tense. Perfect denotes an action that precedes a moment or another action in the past, present or future tense. This concept can also indicate the effectiveness of the action at the moment of speech.
Therefore, an English verb can take 4 aspectual tense forms:
Aspect
|
Common
|
Continuous
|
Form
|
Indefinite
|
Perfect
|
Continuous
|
Perfect
Continuous

The species-temporal forms of each of these groups can be used in the present, past and future tenses, or refers to the tense "The future from the point of view of the past."
