I have a quick question. I can't figure out how to set rules for conjugating something in a conlang because I can't think of the name of the tense. It's the tense for what the future was going to be, in the past. Like, in Moment A, Moment B was the future, except Moment B didn't happen and can never happen, and now we're in Moment C, where Moment A is in the past. (The example I'm trying to conjugate is "we were going to be a family". Specifically, the person's spouse died).
Hi! Conditional perfect progressive? I don’t know. Followers?
Perfect continuous conditional? To me this sounds better as “we would have been a family.” I’m trying to think of it in the scope of other languages (Spanish, for example – habríamos sido una familia, where again its a form of the conditional of haber, an auxiliary, and the participle form of ser). Then again, if it’s a conlang, you could always make your own tense... thoughts?
