Present perfect and past simple
Present Perfect (have done) |
Past Simple (did) |
I’ve done a lot of work today. We use the Present Perfect for a period of time that continues from the past until now. For example, today, this week, since 1985. It hasn’t rained this week. Have you seen Ann this morning? (it is still morning) Ian lives in London. He has lived there for seven years. I have never played golf. (in my life) The Present Perfect always has a connection with now. |
I did a lot of work yesterday. We use the Past Simple for a finished time in the past. For example, yesterday, last week, from 1985 to 1991. It didn’t rain last week. Did you see Ann this morning? (it is now afternoon or evening) Did you see Ann on Sunday? Ian lived in Scotland for ten years. Now he lives in London. I didn’t play golf when I was on holiday last summer. The Past Simple tells us only about the past. |
