In the same way we know when each structure, that is, affirmative sentences, negative sentences and interrogative sentences. it will search for different pages in order to find the best information on this subject of great importance in the grammar of English.

Present PerfectThe perfect present is roughly equivalent to perfect past in Spanish. We will see the differences in the section on uses. Overall, it is a mixture between the present and the past. We used it for past actions that are important in the present.

The present perfect is formed by combining the auxiliary verb "has" or "have" with the past participle.Ihave studied.Hehas writtena letter to Mara.Wehave beenstranded for six days.Because the present perfect is a compound tense, two verbs are required: themainverb and theauxiliaryverb.I have studied.(Main verb: studied; auxiliary verb: have)He has written a letter to Mara.(Main verb: written; auxiliary verb: has)We have been stranded for six days.(Main verb: been; auxiliary verb: have)In Spanish, the present perfect tense is formed by using the present tense of the auxiliary verb "haber" with the past participle. Haber is conjugated as follows:Hehasha

The present perfect tense is frequently used for past actions that continue into the present, or continue to affect the present.He estado dos semanas en Madrid.I have been in Madrid for two weeks.Diego ha sido mi amigo por veinte aos.Diego has been my friend for 20 years.The present perfect tense is often used with the adverb "ya".Ya han comido.They have already eaten.La empleada ya ha limpiado la casa.The maid has already cleaned the house.The auxiliary verb and the past participle are never separated. To make the sentence negative, add the word "no"beforethe conjugated form of Haber.(Yo)Nohe comido.I have not eaten.(T)Nohas comido.You have not eaten.(l)Noha comido.He has not eaten.(Nosotros)Nohemos comido.We have not eaten.(Ustedes)Nohabis comido.You-all have not eaten.(Ellos)Nohan comido.They have not eaten.Again, the auxiliary verb and the past participle arenever separated. Object pronouns are placed immediately before the auxiliary verb.Pablole ha dadomucho dinero a su hermana.Pablo has given a lot of money to his sister.To make this sentence negative, the word "no" is placed before the indirect object pronoun (le).Pablono le ha dadomucho dinero a su hermana.Pablo has not given a lot of money to his sister.Questions are formed as follows. Note how the word order is different than the English equivalent.Han salido ya las mujeres?Have the women left yet?Has probado el chocolate alguna vez?Have you ever tried chocolate?Here are the same sentences in negative form. Notice how the auxiliary verb and the past participle are not separated.No han salidoya las mujeres?Haven't the women left yet?No has probadoel chocolate ninguna vez?Haven't you ever tried chocolate?

UsesThe perfect present is for actions that occurred at a particular time not now. The specific time is not important. Therefore, we do not usually use with the present perfect expressions of specific time ("this morning", "yesterday", "last year" ...). You can use the present perfect with no concrete expressions of time ("never", "ever", "many times", "for", "since," "already", "yet" ...). This concept of no specific time is quite difficult to understand, for this reason, and then you have particular uses of the present perfect.

ConclusionAs you can see the present perfect is a theme important and is obtained to combine the auxiliary verb "has" or "have" with the past participle. And the perfect present for actions that occurred at a particular time not before now is used. The specific time is not important. You can use the present perfect with no specific time expressions.The perfect present can help us to describe an experience, successes, to say the actions that have not yet happened and to discuss actions at different times of the past.
