    PRESENT PERFECT

    How to form the Present Perfect

    PrPesreesnetnPtePrfeercfet cPtoPsoitsiviteive

    SUBJECT HAVE / HAS PAST PARTICIPLE


    I / you / we / they have written
    he / she / it has written

    Note: In spoken English, it’s common to use the contraction:

     I’ve written three books.


     We’ve already seen that movie
     Barbara’s forgotten her cell phone.
     He’s just woken up.

    In this case, he’s, she’s, Barbara’s, etc. mean he has, she has, and Barbara has,
    not he is, she is, or Barbara is.

    SUBJECT HAVEN’T / HASN’T PAST PARTICIPLE

    he / she / it hasn’t seen

     Mary hasn’t come to class for the past two days.

    The past participle is a form of the verb that describes a completed action or

    state. For regular verbs, the past participle is the same as the simple past:

     I worked (simple past) all day yesterday.


     I’ve worked (past participle) here since August.

    This is also the case for many irregular verbs:

     He sold (simple past) his car last week.


     He’s sold (past participle) 200 books so far.

    However, some irregular verbs’ past participles are different from their simple past form:

     We wrote (simple past) an article for the newspaper.


     We’ve written (past participle) for many famous publications.

    Many of these irregular past participles end in –n:

    Infinitive Simple Past Past Participle


    be was / were been
    break broke broken
    choose chose chosen
    do did done
    drive drove driven
    eat ate eaten
    fall fell fallen
    fly flew flown
    forget forgot forgotten
    give gave given
    go went gone
    know knew known
    see saw seen
    show showed shown
    speak spoke spoken
    steal stole stolen
    take took taken
    wear wore worn
    write wrote written

    Other irregular past participles have a change in the vowel:

    Infinitive Simple Past Past Participle


    become became become
    begin began begun
    come came come
    drink drank drunk
    ring rang rung
    run ran run
    sing sang sung
    swim swam swum
