1
Do you honestly know the difference between these sentences?
2
She went to London.
3
She has gone to London.
4
If you're not sure, do not worry.
5
Lots of people are confused by this, but I am going to clear up your doubts.
6
No more confusion on went and have gone.
7
And we will look at have been as well as a bonus.

12
Okay, let's begin.
13
Went and gone are both past forms of go.
14
Went is the past simple and gone is the past participle.
15
I pronounce gone with the short oh vowel sound to rhyme with on.
16
Gone.
17
In North American accents, it often has a longer vowel sound like oh, gone.
18
I need to invite her my American friend to do a little demonstration for you.
19
Joel?
20
Gone.
21
Thank you.
22
Gone is usually used with a form of the auxiliary to have.
23
In the present perfect simple, it's have or has.
24
I have gone, she has gone.
25
But in speech, have is usually contracted to of, apostrophe ve.
26
I've gone.
27
And in he has gone, has is contracted to zz.
28
Apostrophe s, he's gone.
29
Now, you will hear some speakers say have went or has went.
30
This is not standard English, but it is used in certain dialects.
31
Don't use this in an exam.
32
We're going to focus on the standard forms went and have gone in this lesson.
33
Let's examine the sentences from the introduction.
34
We're focusing on the meaning of to go, as in to travel or to move to another place.
35
So, she went to London.
36
We know went is the past simple.
37
This describes a completed action at a time before now.
38
Often, we use a finished time expression such as last week or two years ago she went to london last week
39
using went simply tells you that the action of traveling or moving to another place is finished
40
the tense alone does not tell you if she's still in london or not now compare that with our second sentence.
41
She's gone to London.
42
We see the present perfect simple has gone.
43
We use this tense in a few ways, but one is to talk about things that happened in the past but irrelevant in the present.
44
This would answer a question like, where's Claire?
45
She's gone to London.
46
She is either in London, or she is travelling there, or on her way back.
47
This has relevance in the present, as someone is asking where she is now.
48
There's no finished time expression.
49
Remember, if we want to use a finished time expression, we use went.
50
Let's say someone asks, is Rob here?
51
We might reply, he went to the shop about an hour ago.
52
Or we can say, He's gone to the shop.
53
He'll probably be back soon.
54
Based on the rules we just talked about, how would you complete these sentences?
55
We to Derbyshire last year.
56
We had a great time.
57
And my parents to Derbyshire.
58
They are having a great time.
59
So, the first one would be went.
60
It's a finished action.
61
We had a great time.
62
The second would be have gone because they are still there.
63
They are having a great time.
64
Have gone is a common structure in British English.
65
When asked the question, where's Ollie?
66
Many British English speakers will reply, he's gone to the gym.
67
But Other British English speakers and many North Americans will choose the past simple instead.
68
He went to the gym.
69
Sometimes, went and have gone communicate the message equally well, and there's no real difference in meaning.
70
The same is true about this next question with gone.
71
In British English, we'd usually ask, where's Emma gone?
72
She was here a moment ago.
73
meaning, I saw her very recently.
74
Where is she now?
75
But other speakers, especially in North America, might say, where did Emma go?
76
She was here a moment ago.
77
Now, people will understand you no matter which tense you use here.
78
We often use the adverbs just, yet, and already with have gone.
79
For example, Tom's just gone to grab something to eat.
80
He'll be back in a sec.
81
Sec is short a second.
82
Or, have they gone home already?
83
Or, Tom just went to grab something to eat.
84
You'll hear this in British and North American English.
85
Or, did they go home already?
86
That's more common in North American English.
87
You'll also see went and have gone followed by an ing verb, meaning someone goes to do something.
88
For example, Kelly went fishing yesterday,
89
or Kelly's gone fishing, and followed by an adjective, meaning to become.
90
My hands went numb when I was out in the cold, or my hands have gone numb.
91
They're numb now.
92
The most important thing to remember is not to use a Finnish time expression with have gone.
93
So this is incorrect.
94
He's gone out an hour ago.
95
I've gone swimming last week.
96
Absolutely not.
97
You should say, he went out an hour ago.
98
I went swimming last week.
99
For additional examples with other meanings of go, download the PDF.
100
The link is in the description box or you can scan that QR code there.
101
It's a really useful one.
102
Okay, so that's went and have gone.
103
Before we move on, I want to touch on had gone.
104
This is the past perfect used when one past action happened before another.
105
For example, he'd already gone home by the time I arrived.
106
Both events are in the past, but had gone makes it clear which one came first.
107
Again, download the PDF for more information.
108
Let's move on to our bonus structure now.
109
What is the difference between these sentences?
110
They've gone to Spain.
111
They've been to Spain.
112
Well, we know that have gone means they haven't returned yet.
113
They are in Spain or perhaps travelling there or travelling back.
114
Have been means that they travelled to Spain and came back.
115
Been is the past participle of be, but it's also often treated as a past participle of go.
116
In fast speech, we tend to pronounce been with the short i sound, been.
117
They've been to Spain.
118
See if you can complete these examples.
119
Use gone or been.
120
Where have you?
121
I missed you.
122
Where has Jack?
123
I miss him.
124
Okay, the first one is been.
125
They went and came back and the speaker is talking to them now.
126
So, the second one should be gone.
127
Jack is not here and the speaker misses him.
128
The question, have you ever been or have you ever been, is commonly used to ask about life experiences up to now.
129
We don't tend to use ever in questions with gone.
130
Compare these two.
131
Have you ever been on a roller coaster at any point in your life?
132
Has he gone on the roller coaster?
133
I thought he was too scared.
134
Meaning, is he on the roller coaster now?
135
Now, can you remember how to ask questions with go in the past?
136
You heard one slightly earlier in the video.
137
Did you go?
138
Not, did you went.
139
An example, did you go on the roller coaster yesterday?
140
We can also use gone as an adjective, usually after the verb to be.
141
It means having left a place.
142
Lily's been gone for about an hour.
143
She left about an hour ago.
144
Or, Or, I didn't see Liam or Faith at the party.
145
They were gone before I got there.
146
They left before I arrived.
147
Lastly, I want to mention the idiomatic phrase, been and gone.
148
This means that someone was in a place for a short time and then left.
149
Notice how I use the weak form of and. Been and gone.
150
Been and gone.
151
You will also hear people say, been and gone.
152
Been and gone.
153
Now, let's say someone asks, has Dylan been to see you?
154
You might reply, yes, but he's been and gone.
155
He was in a rush.
156
He was here for a moment and then he left.
157
Okay, let's finish with a quick three-question quiz.
158
Complete the sentences with went, has gone, or has been.
159
Use each once.
160
One.
161
She to Glasgow.
162
She'll be back tomorrow.
163
Two, she to Glasgow yesterday.
164
And three, she to Glasgow, but I'm not sure when.
165
Okay, number one, should be, has gone, because she traveled there and is still there.
166
Some speakers would use went here.
167
Two should always be went the past simple with a finished time expression.
168
And three is has been, because she travelled there at some point and then returned.
169
How did you do?
170
What was your score out of three?
171
Let me know in the comments.
172
And with that, we've reached the end of the lesson.
173
There's lots more to study, and another quiz, and some interactive activities.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
