The Present Perfect:

Form ( Has \ Have + Past Participle ( The present perfect simple tense is used to talk about a past time, which has very strong meaning for the present I' ve work ed .

Have I work ed ?

I have Yes, I n't worked have .

No, I haven't .

For example:

He has lost his key.

(he lost it and still hasn’t got it) She

has gone out

. She should be back in an hour.

We form the present perfect simple by using the auxiliary verb have/has and the -ed form of the regular verb (the past participle) irregular verb forms have to be learned .

We CAN use the Present Perfect with time expressions such as : ever, never, once, many times, several times, before, so far, already, yet, etc. We use already in statements and yet in questions and negative sentences .

The present perfect simple is used to discuss events that have just been completed at the moment of speaking.

For example: Q) Have you done your homework yet?" A) "Yes, I've just finish ed it.“’No , I haven't done it yet.

Note - You are talking about today and today isn't finished, so you may do your homework later!

It is often used to talk about events in the past we don’t know or not interested in exactly when they happened For example: I have been a broad many times.(it doesn't matter exactly when) You have seen that movie many times.
