voltooid verleden toekomende tijd m (uncountable)

  1. (grammar) conditional perfect

Usage notes[edit]

  • Literally, ‘perfect past future tense’, this modal construction is used as a past conditional, but the modal uses the past perfect tense of zullen (the future modal) in the indicative mood instead of the conditional mood. Formally speaking, Dutch has no separate conditional mood.
