Present perfect tense combines the present tense and the perfect aspect used to express an event that happened in the past that has present consequences. This tense is used to show a link between the present and past and is commonly used in everyday conversations, in the news, on the radio, and when writing letters.
One example of this tense is: "have jumped." "Have" is the present tense and "jumped" is the past participle. Some other forms of this tense are:
Has lived: She has lived here all her life.
Have written: They have written three letters already.
Have worked: I have worked here since I graduated school.
Has done: He has finished his homework.
Have been: We have been to Canada.
Has forgotten: She has forgotten her folder.
There are many different situations where the present perfect tense can be used. It can be used in the following ways:
To describe an action that is being repeated between the past and present.
Example: We have gone to the beach many times.
To describe an action that started in the past and is still continuing in the future. Example: I have lived in the United States since 1990.
To describe an action that has not yet been finished.
Example: It has rained a lot this month.
To describe an action that was completed in the recent past. Example: I have just finished my internship at the museum.
To describe an action when time was not an important aspect. Example: She has lost her wedding ring.
There are times when you cannot use the present perfect tense. For example, you cannot use it with specific expressions of time that have already finished, such as last year, that month, when I was a baby, etc.
