Question

I will meet him, _____ ?

• A. when he will come
• B. when he come
• C. when he comes
• D. when he would come

Answer 1

Answer:

C. when he comes

This sentence refers to a future action. With time conjunctions such as when, before, after, until, as soon as, we generally use the Simple Present in the time clause, even when the meaning is future.

Pattern:
Future Simple + when + Simple Present

• Main clause: I will meet him → Simple Future

• Time clause: when he comes → Simple Present

More examples:

• I will call you when I reach home.

• She will start cooking when the guests arrive.

• We will leave when the rain stops.
