Good afternoon, everyone. Could you help me with the two following sentences ( in a workbook)?
EXAMPLE 1: The film will end when you finish dinner.
EXAMPLE 2: By the time the film ends, you will have finished dinner.
In my opinion, the two sentences have the same meaning. They mean the action "you will finish dinner" happens first and then the second one " the film will end" follows. Please explain if I were wrong. Thanks in advance.
