Today we are taking a look at a verb tense that is misunderstood by many students.
2
The present perfect.
3
Let's get started.
4
Hello and welcome to English Speaking 360.
5
Now, these right here are present perfect sentences.
6
I have worked at McDonald's.
7
Liz hasn't seen the movie yet.
8
And, have you ever been to Japan?
9
If you don't know how to use this verb tense very well, stay with me, I will explain everything to you.
10
First, here's something you must know.
11
The simple past and the present perfect are very similar, so you have to be careful.
12
Simple past, we would say, I went to Egypt.
13
For the present perfect, we would say, I have been to Egypt, but what is the difference?
14
I went to Egypt is a past action that is finished,
15
only in the past, so there is no connection to the present.
16
I have been to Egypt, however, is also a past action,
17
finished or unfinished, but there is a connection to the present.
18
And that is the key for today's video.
19
There are two present perfect uses, two different uses.
20
Let's take a look at them.
21
I have seen the new Marvel movie and I have lived in Canada all my life.
22
Can you spot the difference?
23
Maybe not.
24
It's hard to see.
25
I have seen the new Marvel movie is a past action that is actually finished.
26
The seeing of the movie is over already.
27
and I have lived in Canada all my life
28
is also a past action that is unfinished because I am still living in Canada now.
29
So that is the difference between the two uses of the present perfect.
30
Also, the first use, there is a result in the present.
31
On the other hand, for the second use, there is no result because the action continues to the present.
32
So that's why whenever you use the present perfect,
33
you have to remember that it's a past action that touches the present in some way.
34
Also today, I'm going to give you eight signal words that tell you when to use the present perfect.
35
So make sure you stay with me
36
and make sure you write down the eight words that are absolutely crucial in your understanding of the present perfect.
37
Let's take a look at the first use of the present perfect.
38
Now, here's the same example.
39
I have seen the new Marvel movie.
40
Okay, the past action is finished.
41
So it happened in the past and it's over.
42
But, watch out, there is a result in the present.
43
So the past action is touching the present with a certain result.
44
There is an effect in the present.
45
I've seen the new Marvel movie.
46
What is the meaning of that?
47
The meaning is that I saw the movie in the past.
48
When did I see it?
49
We don't know because we don't care when it happened.
50
Remember this, we don't care when.
51
Now, I know you wonder about the present result.
52
Think about it.
53
I have seen the new Marvel movie.
54
What could be a result in the present right now?
55
One of the possible results could be, I know the story now.
56
I know the story of the new Marvel movie.
57
Or another result could be, I don't want to see it again because I have seen it before.
58
Do you understand the present result?
59
I hope so.
60
Here is another example.
61
I have lost my keys.
62
Okay, it means I lost my keys sometime in the past. When?
63
Remember, we don't know when because we don't care when it happened.
64
It's not important.
65
The focus is on the present result of me losing my keys in the past.
66
So, what is the result right now?
67
The result could be I can't get into my apartment.
68
I cannot open the door because I don't have my keys with me.
69
Now, here's a test.
70
Can you say this?
71
I have lost my keys yesterday. Is it okay?
72
No, you can't. But why?
73
Here's the answer.
74
Remember, we don't care when it happened.
75
And right here, what do we have?
76
We have a time expression.
77
If there is a time expression, you must use the simple past.
78
There's no way around it, so you must say, I lost my keys yesterday.
79
Lost is the simple past, and yesterday shows when it happened.
80
Now, how to make a present perfect sentence?
81
That's also an important point, and it's not so difficult.
82
I have visited London.
83
Okay, we always use the verb have, so that's why here I'm going to use my mouse.
84
You see have.
85
Have is the present part, okay?
86
And the perfect part is the PP, right here?
87
The PP is the past participle, okay?
88
Maybe you don't know the past participle, but I think you know this, right?
89
Visit, visited, visited.
90
The third one is the past participle.
91
For regular verbs, it is with ed at the end.
92
So, for regular verbs, the simple past and the past participle are the same.
93
But remember, you need have.
94
But, for irregular verbs, they are usually very different.
95
Be was been.
96
So, you would say, she has been to Japan.
97
This is how to make a present perfect sentence.
98
Maybe you wonder how about contractions.
99
Ok, if your sentence is positive, for example, I have visited London, if you want to make it shorter,
100
if you want to contract the sentence, you would say, I visited London.
101
I've visited London.
102
It sounds more natural.
103
She has been to Japan.
104
Can you take a guess?
105
It would become, she's been to Japan.
106
She's been to Japan.
107
It sounds a lot more natural.
108
Now, if your sentence is negative, I have not visited London.
109
What would be the contraction?
110
It would be, I haven't visited London.
111
I haven't visited London.
112
And, she has not been to Japan would become, she hasn't been to Japan.
113
She hasn't been to Japan.
114
Now, here's something important for you.
115
We use the present perfect to talk about experience.
116
And this is a key point because it is very useful for job interviews.
117
So if you talk about your experience at a job interview, you must use the present perfect, not the simple past.
118
For example, I have worked in many foreign countries.
119
Oh, very nice.
120
It's a past action, so me working in other countries happened in the past,
121
but it's not only in the past.
122
It is touching the present because right now I have the experience of working with foreign people in foreign countries.
123
So, what does it mean?
124
It means that I can use my experience for your company and that's why we use the present perfect.
125
Here's another example.
126
I have managed complex projects.
127
So, right now, I can also do it for your company.
128
I have exceeded sales targets.
129
Present result?
130
I can do it again and I can make money for your company right now.
131
Let's take a look at the second use of the present perfect.
132
It's a little bit more challenging.
133
We've seen this example before.
134
I have lived in Canada all my life.
135
Okay, it's a past action but in this case the past action is not finished.
136
So that's important.
137
It started in the past but it continues to the present.
138
You see the arrow, the blue arrow right there.
139
Okay, so it continues up to the present.
140
Good.
141
And possibly into the future, but we don't know about that.
142
Here are some examples.
143
We have owned this house for a decade.
144
Okay, it means the action started in the past.
145
We bought the house 10 years ago, a decade ago.
146
We bought it in the past and the action continues to the present.
147
We still own the house today and possibly into the future.
148
Maybe we will keep owning the house forever, but we don't know about this.
149
Here are more examples.
150
They have known each other since childhood.
151
They have been married for 20 years.
152
So, for these two examples also, the action started in the past and it continues up to the present time.
153
Some words often require the present perfect and we call them signal words.
154
Signal words are words that when you see them, they give you a pretty good indication that you should use the present perfect.
155
Here's the first example.
156
When you talk about your experience, I have worked at McDonald's for five years.
157
Four plus a duration, for two hours, for a week, for three months.
158
So when you see that, usually use have plus PP, the present perfect.
159
I have lived in this city since 2020.
160
Since is another signal word.
161
Since plus the starting point of the period of time.
162
Since two days ago.
163
Since last year.
164
Since I was young.
165
That shows when the action started.
166
So when did I move to this city?
167
I moved in 2020.
168
So I have lived in this city since 2020.
169
Remember, every time you see for and since, use the present perfect.
170
Here are three other signal words.
171
Have you ever eaten kimchi?
172
Ever is used in questions, and when you see it, it's a good indication to use have plus pp, the present perfect.
173
I have never tried kimchi.
174
is used in negative sentences and is also a signal word.
175
And the last one, I've had kimchi before.
176
Before is used in positive sentences and also in questions.
177
Have you eaten kimchi before?
178
You could also say that.
179
And remember that if you see those three words, you should use the present perfect.
180
Finally, the three last signal words for today.
181
Have you finished dinner yet?
182
Yet is used in questions and negative sentences.
183
You've heard not yet before, right?
184
So have you finished dinner yet?
185
I have just finished eating.
186
Just means very recently.
187
And when you see just, we use the present perfect.
188
And the last one, I have already finished eating, already means earlier than expected.
189
Remember that when you see yet, just and already, use the present perfect.
190
Here's a good summary of the present perfect.
191
It's a past action, finished or unfinished, it depends.
192
Usually there is a present result or the action is touching the present in some way.
193
There is no time expression.
194
This is super important.
195
And the focus is on experience.
196
Remember also there are eight signal words that when you see those words, you should know that there's a good chance that you must use the present perfect.
197
Now let's take a quiz and let's check your understanding.
198
Let's go.
199
Have you ever gone skydiving?
200
No, I never skydiving.
201
Here's the verb you must use.
202
You must use the verb go.
203
Are you ready?
204
No, I have never gone skydiving.
205
Here are some key points.
206
You have two signal words here.
207
You have ever in the question and you have never in the answer.
208
Also, we focus on the present result.
209
I don't have that experience, so I am scared or so I'm a beginner.
210
Here's another question.
211
What should we eat for dinner?
212
I.. some chicken.
213
And the verb is cook.
214
Give it a try.
215
I have cooked some chicken.
216
Good.
217
Key points.
218
It's a past action.
219
The cooking is already finished.
220
I have cooked some chicken.
221
and the present result is we are going to eat that chicken.
222
Next question.
223
Do you know anything about Asian culture?
224
Yes, I am in Japan for three years.
225
And your verb is live.
226
So think about it and think about the key points.
227
You have a signal word here, four plus a duration, four, three years.
228
And also, there's a present result.
229
I know about Asian culture because I have lived in Japan for three years.
230
Here's a more difficult one.
231
Are you ready for Christmas?
232
No, I.. any Christmas gifts yet.
233
Think about it.
234
your verb is by.
235
Key points, single word, did you find it?
236
There was yet at the end.
237
Also, the present result is I am not ready for Christmas.
238
So, no, I haven't bought any Christmas gifts yet.
239
Next question, I'm afraid we're going to get lost in Paris.
240
Don't worry, I Paris three times.
241
And the verb is visit.
242
You ready?
243
Key points.
244
Present result.
245
I know Paris quite well. Because?
246
Three times.
247
So three times is a focus on experience.
248
The answer is don't worry.
249
I have visited Paris three times.
250
Or you could say don't worry.
251
I have been to Paris three times.
252
Three more questions.
253
Have you ever tried dim sum?
254
Yes, I dim sum last month.
255
Okay.
256
The verb is try.
257
Key points.
258
There's a single word right here, last month.
259
And last month is a time expression.
260
Okay.
261
And the focus is on when it happened.
262
Last month.
263
So the answer is yes, I have tried dim sum last month.
264
Right?
265
No?
266
Why are you making that face?
267
If you can spot it, you are good.
268
You have studied well.
269
Yes, I tried dim sum last month.
270
Because of the time expression, you cannot use the present perfect.
271
You must use the simple past.
272
Try this one.
273
Hey, long time no see.
274
How you.. and the verb is the verb to be.
275
You ready?
276
Key points.
277
There's a signal word but it's a hidden signal word here.
278
Since we last met.
279
Okay?
280
And the focus is on experience.
281
So, past experience up to the present day.
282
Since the last time we met until today.
283
So the answer is, hey, long time no see.
284
How have you been?
285
How have you been since the last time we met?
286
Hey, long time no see.
287
How have you been?
288
I'm very busy at work.
289
The verb is once again the verb to be.
290
Let's go.
291
Key points.
292
Signal word is hidden once again since we last met.
293
The focus is on experience, the past experience up to the present day.
294
So the answer is I have been very busy at work.
295
Good job guys!

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
