Grammar in this module

• Extended participle constructions (formal written German) — Formal texts pack a whole relative clause before the noun using a participle: 'der [ADVERB] [PARTICIPLE] Kandidat' instead of 'der Kandidat, der …'.
• Future II (werden + Partizip + haben/sein) and summary of tenses — Futur II expresses what will already have happened by a certain point — often used to make confident guesses about the past.
