2.10. The present perfect continuous tense

Present Perfect Continuous образуется при помощи вспомогательного глагола to be в форме Present Perfect (have been, has been) и формы причастия настоящего времени (Present Participle) смыслового глагола: I have been working, he has been working, we have been working.

Отрицательная форма – I / you / we / they haven’t been working

He /she hasn’t been working

Вопросительная форма - Have I (you / we / they) been working?

Has he / she been working?

СЛУЧАИ УПОТРЕБЛЕНИЯ:

Present Perfect Continuous употребляется для выражения длительного действия, которое началось в прошлом и еще совершается в настоящее время. При употреблении этого времени всегда указан период времени, в течение которого совершается действие.

Present Perfect Continuous употребляется с такими обозначениями времени, как for an hour (a month, a long time) в течение часа (месяца, долго времени), since yesterday со вчерашнего дня, since five oclock с пяти часов и т.п., а также в вопросах, начинающихся с how long? как долго (давно)?
