Edit Comment Close Premium member Presentation Transcript Simple Past vs. Present Perfect : Simple Past vs. Present Perfect When do we use each tense in English? Remember: : Remember: Grammar has meaning! Different grammar tenses are used in different situations or contexts and they carry different meanings. For example . . . Slide 3: Use the simple past for action that happened in the past and is: over, done, finished! Use the present perfect for action that started in the past, but . . . is still true today. Slide 4: The simple past always refers to an action or situation that is finished. The present perfect connects the past and the present. It is used to show that an action or situation in the past: -continues today, OR -might happen again Slide 5: Compare the meaning of these two sentences: 1. Sara lived in Boston for 5 years. 2. Sara has lived in Boston for 5 years. The first sentence uses: Simple Past The second sentence uses: Present Perfect Slide 6: Sara lived in Boston for 5 years. Meaning: by using the simple past tense, we mean that Sara started living in Boston 5 years ago . . . AND . . . then she moved! Now she lives in a different city, like Paris. Remember, the simple past is used for a situation that is over, finished, done! Slide 7: Sara has lived in Boston for 5 years. Meaning: by using the present perfect tense, we mean that Sara began living in Boston 5 years ago . . . AND . . . she still lives there. Remember, present perfect: connects the past with the present. Slide 8: Use the simple past with time words like: yesterday last Saturday, week, month, year, etc. _______ ago when I was… in 1990 (past date) Use the present perfect with time words like: recently/lately since … so far this week, month, year, etc. Additional notes about present perfect: : Additional notes about present perfect: We often use present perfect to say that something happened sooner than expected. Example: Jan: Don’t forget to mail that letter. Tom: I’ve already mailed it. Slide 10: We often use present perfect to say that we have never done something at any time in the past. Example: I have never visited London. But someday, I hope to travel there. Slide 11: We often use present perfect with the expression: “This is the first time.” Example: Leonard is nervous. This is the first time he has flown on an airplane! Slide 12: We often use present perfect with “ever” and “never.” Example: Patricia: Have you ever played tennis? Linda: No, I’ve never played before, but I would like to learn! Slide 13: Remember! If you are talking about a specific time in the past (yesterday, last month, etc.), you cannot use the present perfect. In these cases, use the simple past. Slide 14: Practice!
