Present Perfect Questions

Present Perfect Questions




The present perfect is formed from the present tense of the verb have and the past participle of a verb.

We use the present perfect:

They've been married for nearly fifty years. She has lived in Liverpool all her life.

I've seen that film before. I've played the guitar ever since I was a teenager. He has written three books and he is working on another one.

We often use the adverb ever to talk about experience up to the present:

My last birthday was the worst day I have ever had.

and we use never for the negative form:

Have you ever met George? Yes, but I've never met his wife.
