Answer:
The correct form of the verb- Have posted
I already have posted the letter.
Explanation:
- Verbs are used to put it simply, to refer to actions or states of being.
- In English grammar, the action word or the tense of a verb tells the readers about when in time something happened.
- The present perfect tense may strike as a bit of a misnomer because it never seems to be referring to the present at all at first glance.
- The given sentence describes an action that happened in the past, as it says that I have posted the letter. before the current moment when the subject "I" is saying this sentence.
- It can be confusing to suggest that the present perfect tense does the same job as the simple past tense, I posted the letter.
- While simple past and present perfect can sometimes be effectively used interchangeably to get the same meanings; with slight but important differences in these two verb tenses.
- One of the main reasons we use the present perfect tense here is to indicate that a state or action that happened or started in the past has some connection to the present and future.
- Typically, we use the present perfect tense to indicate something that happened in the past but continues to occur.
- "Already" is used with the present perfect tense referring to 'before now'.
- We prefer it to emphasise that something happened before something else or earlier than expected.
- For example; I have already posted the letter.
- [Already can be added between the auxiliary and the main verb or at the end of the clause.]
Therefore, the correct form of the verb is- have posted
i.e. I have already posted the letter.
