the present perfect tence : already, yet, still
the present perfect tence (have\has + PP ) is used 2 talk about actions that happend at an indefinite time in the past , but that have important in the present when we refer to a definit time in the past , we use the simpel past tence.
for exampel
A:
have
you ever
studied
chinese?
(any time from past to present) .
B: yes I
took
a course last year .
(specific time n the past ).
already, yet , and , still are three more expressions of indefinite time used with the PP tense
A: what
has
the new principal
accomplished so far
?
B: she promised to hire ten teachers in three years , and she's
already hired
seven .
A: she also promised to put new computers in the classroom .
has
she
done
that
yet
?
B: well, I'm sorry to say she
hasn't done
that yet , and she
still hasn't lowered
tuition. but I'm sure she will. she's the best
principal we
've ever had
[/LEFT]
* *STILL Have many kinds and when It come with the present perfect to be negative.
