Dear teachers,
My friend asked me about the following situation with respect to the correct usage of tense:
A person goes to a job interview. When he/she has entered the room, the interviewer says that the interview will be in English. Now the person’s answer would be:
The first two are, in my opinion, correct. The third one would be maybe possible, but the last one, I think, is incorrect. Could you help me choose the correct tense?
Thank you very much.
