they will come here yesterday

This phrase is incorrect as it combines future tense ('will come') with past tense ('yesterday'), creating a contradiction.

To correct this phrase, you can say 'They came here yesterday' to maintain the past tense throughout.

Alternatives:

  • They came here yesterday

they will coming here yesterday

This phrase is incorrect as 'coming' is the present participle form and does not match the past tense reference of 'yesterday.'

To correct this phrase, you can say 'They were coming here yesterday' to match the past tense.

Alternatives:

  • They were coming here yesterday
The two phrases are not correct as they mix tenses in an illogical way. 'They will come here yesterday' combines 'will come' (future tense) with 'yesterday' (past tense), which is contradictory. 'They will coming here yesterday' is also incorrect because 'coming' is the present participle form and does not match the past tense reference of 'yesterday.'
