The best way is to use contractions : His temper won't be right again until we're at home

Maybe the speaker means that he is in a bad mood and he will continue to be in a bad mood until he goes home.

@SPHewitt: I still can't translate it. Maybe is possible add "that" or separate the sentence on few little phrase?

"His temper is not right. It will be right when we get home. " Does it help? I don't think I can rewrite it with "that".

@Tantal: temper means mood, so if his temper is not right it could mean that he is angry or something like that.

@Tantal: I don't think so. What is strange is using right to describe "temper", I think. You mean the tenses? "will" "until" and "be at home"?

@chuisi Now, when I understand how translate it, I would to say "His temper will not be right until we will be at home again"

@Tantal: I'm not sure what you are saying. Maybe that's right in Russian, is that what you mean? Because in English the present simple "are at home" is ok because it has a future meaning. For example, "The plane arrives tomorrow at 7" uses present simple because it is a timetable. So present simple can also be used to talk about future sometimes.

@Tantal: yes, tenses are very complicated, but tell me if I wasn't clear enough, I can try to explain better. Glad to help anyways!
