Present Perfect Simple
The present perfect is the present tense of have + a past participle. I/you/we/they have washed OR I/you/we/they've washed he/she/it has washed OR he/she/it's washed NEGATIVE QUESTION I/you/we/they haven't washed have I/you/we/they washed? he/she/it hasn't washed has he/she/it washed? Regular past participles end in ed, e.g. washed, landed, finished. We've washed the dishes. Have you opened your letter? The aircraft has landed safely. How many points has Matthew scored? The students haven't finished their exams. Irregular forms Some participles are irregular. I've made a shopping list. We've sold our car. I've thought about it a lot. Have you written the letter? She hasn't drunk her coffee. There is a present perfect of be and of have. The weather has been awful I've had a lovely time, thank you. Use When we use the present perfect, we see things as happening in the past but having a result in the present. We've washed the dishes. (They're clean now.) The aircraft has landed. (It's on the ground now.) We've eaten all the eggs. (There aren't any left.) They've learnt the words. (They know the words.) You've broken this watch. (It isn't working.) The present perfect tells us about the past and the present. = United have won the Cup, so it's theirs now. The past simple tells us about the past, a time which is finished. Last year is in the past. We use the past simple (not the present perfect) to talk about times in the past such as yesterday, last week, in 1994, a hundred years ago. We watched United last week, NOT We Long ago dinosaurs lived here. NOT Long PRESENT PERFECT PAST SIMPLE Emma packed her case last night. Emma has packed her case.(So her things are in the case now.) (Her things may be unpacked now.) Mike repaired the chair.(It may be broken again now.) Mike has repaired the chair.(So it's all right now.) The plane has just landed. The plane landed ten minutes ago. I've turned the heating on. (It's on now.) I turned the heating on earlier, but it's off again now. Practice 1. I have done or I did? Put in the correct verb form. ?
