What's the difference between "to be completed" and "to be complete" ? "to be completed" >> complete is used as a verb "to be complete" >> complete here is used as an adjective Is there any minor difference in terms of sense and context because seems like they are both correct? Example: The work will be completed/complete in 3 days.

As a Verb: "I shall complete the project." As an Adjective: "The project is complete."

Ah yikes.... before I teach you bad English, I have just made a horrible grammar mistake changing my sentences. It should be either:
You probably would not want to say that.
or
You probably do not want to say that.

The work will be completed in 3 days. == The work will be finished in 3 days.
The work will be complete in 3 days. == The work will be in one whole piece in 3 days. You would probably do not want to say that.
Some example I can think of:
You are a very complete employer, since you have completed all kinds of tasks on time. == Means your skill are very complete, you do not fail any skills. And this has been shown by the fact you finished all your work on time.
