Learn English – Using “will” twice in a sentence

grammaticalitymodal-verbs

Is it correct to use will twice in the following sentence?

When you will come to see me we will have dinner together.

Best Answer

There is no general rule against using "will" twice in the same sentence. However, your sentence is incorrect because adverbial clauses with when do not usually use the modal will. To indicate future time within a when-clause, use the simple present:

When you come to see me, we will have dinner together.
