Abstract.The article is devoted to consider Perfect Future as a tense expressing the category of posteriority. The research is proved to be actual because posteriority meaning is considered to be a systematic meaning of Perfect Future however it is used to represent different types of posteriority in complex sentences. The purpose of the article is to prove that Perfect Future tense realizes different kinds of time posteriority in Russian. During the research, the methods of component, mental-logical analysis and descriptive method were used. The source for the collection and systematization of linguistic material was the «National Corpus of the Russian Language» (http://ruscorpora.ru). The
research is carried out in line with those linguistic works where the idea of time reference is developed. The analysis shows that posteriority category is expressed by Perfect Future. As a result of the research, it is proved that Perfect Future without the participation of non-verbal indicators and with the participation of non-verbal indicators expresses the nunc / tunc posteriority values after nunc / tunc reference points, mutual posteriority / anteriority value, tunc posteriority after auxiliary reference point in future or after last moment of the closed interval. Expressing posteriority depends on different contextual conditions. The situation acquires reference status in future when its realization takes
place in time. Potential referential status or prospective time reference is inherent to future tenses. A situation conserves its non-referential status until it is realized at a particular moment in future. Potential prospective time reference in future is due to non-verbal concretization. This paper involves the study of expression means of posteriority on morphological level.
Key words: posteriority, aspect, aspect semantics of verbs, future tense, temporal reference.
