His wife was to be born the next month .
这是什么时态,应该怎么理解它?用过去将来时可以吗?

这句话本身就错误了.

his wife was to be born 是他妻子将被生产

应该是: his wife was going to give birth next month.

看见was,就知道是过去式
看见to be,就是将要怎样怎样
看见be born,就要知道这个是被动
the next month,下一个月
主语是his wife,他的妻子

翻译成为:他的妻子就在下一个月出生的。

这是过去将来时,可以的。
表示说话的时候已过去,但他的妻子生小孩相对这个时间又是将来的时间。
