The Present Perfect Tense
Настоящее совершенное время
Настоящее совершенное время тесно связано и с прошедшим, и с настоящим. Оно выражает результат прошедшего действия на настоящий момент времени.
Например,
Я уже закончил институт.
Кто съел мое пирожное?
В отличие от прошедшего времени, оно никогда не употребляется с обстоятельствами времени, указывающими на совершение действия в прошлом (такими как yesterday, two days ago, last year, in 1998). Ведь их использование в предложении свидетельствует о том, что действие никак не связано с настоящим временем.
Например,
Я потерял кошелек два месяца назад. I lost my wallet two months ago.
Кто вчера съел мой торт? Who ate my cake yesterday?
Настоящее совершенное время употребляется со следующими наречиями времени:
Never – никогда
Ever – когда-либо (в вопросительных и отрицательных предложениях)
Already – уже (в утвердительных предложениях)
Yet – еще/уже (в отрицательных и вопросительных предложениях)
Just – только что
Recently – недавно
Lately – за последнее время
This year/month/morning (если год, месяц или утро еще не закончились)
Настоящее совершенное время образуется следующим образом:
Have/has+3-я форма глагола
3-я форма правильных глаголов совпадает со второй (to play-played-played). 3-ю форму неправильных глаголов необходимо запомнить
I have never seen tigers.I’ve never seen tigers.
He has just visited India. He’s just visited India.
Have you ever been to the Zoo?
I haven’t ever cooked pizza./I have never cooked pizza.
I haven’t measured this table yet.
He has recently won the prize. He’s recently won the prize.
I haven’t read anything lately.
This evening I have cooked a delicious dinner. This evening I’ve cooked a delicious dinner.
