WEDNESDAY

Past Simple vs Present Perfect

WEDNESDAY

Let's practice

Let's see the rules

More practice

Past Simple

S + V -ed/V2 + O

Дії, що сталися в конкретний момент у минулому, є точний час виконання дії.

Wednesday visited the secret library last night.

(Yesterday, last week, 5 years ago, in 1653, the day before yesterday)

Present Perfect

S + have/has + V -ed/V3 + O

Події сталися у минулому, але результат важливий зараз, час неважливий

Wednesday has discovered a new secret.

(just, ever, never, already, yet, recently, since, for)

Past Simple Present Perfect

Wednesday defeated the villain yesterday.

Якщо ж ми вказуємо час або питаємо про те, коли це відбулося, тоді ми вживаємо Past Simple:

Ми використовуємо Present Perfect тоді, коли акцентуємо увагу на самій дії і не уточнюємо конкретний час:

Якщо ж ми продовжуємо говорити про це та надаємо деталі, то тоді вже використовуємо Past Simple:

Ми використовуємо Present Perfect, щоб розповісти про якусь подію чи досвід.
