Question

When do we use present perfect tense?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Present perfect tense is used to show that an action has taken place once or many times before now.

We use this tense to say that an action happened at an unspecified time before now.The exact time is not important.

Example

1. I have seen that movies twenty times.
2. I think I have met him once before.
3. There have been many earthquakes in California

Answer 2

Aɴsᴡᴇʀ:

﹡ The Present Perfect is used for a past action when we can see the result of the action now.

Examples:

(i) The taxi has arrived. (It is now here)

(ii) I have finished my homework. (Now I am free)

(iii) Have you made the tea? (Is the yea ready now?)

(iv) She has passed the driving test. (Now she can drive.)

﹡ The present perfect tells us about the past and the present, i.e, it links the past with the present.
