WEEK 14
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE RECENTLY?
• Present perfect
affirmative
PRESENT PERFECT

• We use present perfect when we describe a very recent event in the past
without an exact time.
The film has started.
• We often explain a present situation by saying what happened before it.
We do not mention an exact time.
Why are you late? I´ve lost my watch.
The past action (losing the watch) has a result in the present (I´m late).
• We use the present perfect when we talk about our experiences in the
past and do not mention an exact time.
I´ve lived in fifteen different countries.
• We form the present perfect with
I´ve finished my homework.
have/has + past
participle
REGULAR VERBS
With regular verbs, the past participle is the same as the past simple.
I have started he has started we
have started
I´ve started he´s started we´ve started
You have started she has started they have started
You´ve started she´s started they´ve
started
It has started
It´s started

IRREGULAR VERBS
Each irregular verb has its own past participle. Sometimes the participle is
the same as the past simple, sometimes it has a different form.
Verb Past simple Past participle
be was/were been
eat ate eaten
go went gone
leave left left
drink drank drunk
have had had

• We form the Present Perfect with have/has + the past participle. In


spoken English we usually use the contracted form ´ve/´s.
I have met my old teacher= I´ve met my old teacher.
She has been in Italy Twice = She´s been in Italy twice
Have met = ´ve met Have not met = haven´t met
Has met = ´s met Has not met 0 hasn´t met

A. PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE (1) EVER, NEVER

I / you / we / they He/ she /it

(+) I´ve been to Brazil. She´s been to Italy once.


(-) We haven´t seen Shrek 2. He hasn´t spoken to me.
(?) Have they arrived? Has it rained recently?
(✓) Yes, they have. Yes, it has.
() No, haven´t. No, it hasn´t.

• We use the Present perfect to talk about past actions or experiences in


our lives, but we don´t specify when they happened. We often use it with
the adverbs recently and once, twice, etc.
I´ve been to Africa once.
I´ve seen Bruno Mars in concert twice.
• We often use the Present perfect with ever in questions and never in
negative sentences with an affirmative verb.
Have you ever seen the Queen?
No, I´ve never seen the Queen.

B. PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE (2) already, just still, yet

(+) I´ve already finished.

He´s just arrived.

(?) Has he arrived yet?

(-) We haven´t finished yet.


They still haven´t arrived.
• We use already in affirmative sentences to say that something
happened before now.
• We use just in affirmative sentences to say that something has
happened very recently.
• We use yet in questions to ask about something that we expect to
happen. We use (not…) yet in negative sentences to say that something
we expected to happened hasn´t happened.
• We use still in negative sentences with the same meaning as yet.
