Notes: Forms and Patterns
The Present Perfect Simple
(a) |
Form: |
have/has |
+ |
verb |
+ |
-ed |
(past participle) |
I have (‘ve) asked you have (‘ve) asked he/she/it has (‘s) asked we have (‘ve) asked you have (‘ve) asked they have (‘ve) asked |
Have I asked? Have you asked? Has he asked? Have we asked? Have you asked? Have they asked? |
I have not (haven’t) asked you have not (haven’t) asked she has not (hasn’t) asked we have not (haven’t) asked you have not (haven’t) asked they have not (haven’t) asked |
Some verbs are ‘regular’; other verbs are ‘irregular’:

(For a list of irregular past participles see Appendix 2)
We use the Present Perfect Simple:
to express an activity at some non-specific time in the past with a result in the present or future:
-
e.g.
He’s broken a cup
I’ve seen this film.
2. to express experiences:
-
e.g.
I’ve travelled a lot in Africa.
They’ve lived all over the world.
«Ever» and «never» are common with this use.
3. to express an activity within a period of time which is not yet finished:
-
e.g.
to express an action or state which began in the past and continues to the present:
-
e.g.
I’ve known Alice for six years.
How long have you worked as a teacher?
(с) The Present Perfect Simple often occurs with «just, yet, already, never, ever, so far, up to now, lately, of late»:
-
e.g.
Don’t forget to post the letter. - I have already posted it.
He has just arrived.
I haven’t told them about the accident yet.
The adverbs «just, already, never» normally go after the auxiliary verb «have»:
-
e.g.
The taxi has just arrived.
The adverbs «yet, lately, so far, up to now, this year, this month» normally go
at the end of a sentence:
-
e.g.
They haven’t finished dinner yet.
The adverb «already» can also go at the end of a sentence for emphasis:
-
e.g.
I’ve done it already.
The Present Perfect Simple can be translated into Russian in two ways:
-
e.g.
People have believed that there is a monster in the lake. -
Люди верят, что в озере есть чудовище.
This man has just broken his leg. -
Этот человек только что сломал ногу.
Types of questions:
The dogs have learnt to stop for traffic. |
