Observații:
Din structurile aflate în paranteze (indici de timp) ne dăm seama că verbele pe care le vom folosi sunt fie la Present Perfect Tense, fie la Past Tense Simple.
Așa cum știm, pentru timpul Present Perfect sunt caracteristici indicii de timp precum: „for”, „since”, „yet”, evidențiind o acțiune începută în trecut însă nefinalizată.
Pentru timpul Past Tense Simple sunt caracteristici indicii de timp precum: „ago”, „last week/month/year”, „yesterday”, care arată o acțiune încheiată.
