NEW GRAMMATICAL TENSES

FUTURE PAST TENSE:
Simple future past is used when an action take place from what is plan or decision to do something. Nothing is said about time in the future present.

I could not see it
I could eat it
I would not sleep

FUTURE PAST CONTINUOUS TENSE:
Future past continuous tense is used to express action at a particular pass moment in the future.  However, the action will not have finished at the past moment.

I could not be seeing
I would be eating
I should be sleeping when you arrive.

FUTURE PAST PERFECT TENSE:
Future past perfect expresses action that occur in the past future before another action in the part future

I could have not seen it
I would have slept before you.

FUTURE PAST PERFECT CONTINUOUS TENSE:
Future past perfect continuous is used to talk about an on-going action before some point in the past future.

I could have not been seeing it
I would have not been playing for an hour when you come.

LOGICAL EXPLANATION:
If I am asked by somebody to pick his keys for him, and I am looking to see it but not seeing, my return speak to him is “I could not be seeing it”. If I stop looking further to see it; my return speaks to the person is “I could not see it”.  If you say “ I cannot see” it”, it means you cannot just see it again at that present moment.
