Explicații:

Timpul Present Perfect se formează cu ajutorul verbului „to have” la prezent plus participiul trecut al verbului de conjugat.

Exemplu:

I have just fallen down the stairs.

Tocmai am căzut pe scări.

He hasn’t seen his neighbour lately.

El nu și-a văzut vecinul în ultima vreme.

Timpul Present Perfect se folosește pentru a exprima o acțiune începută în trecut și neîncheiată sau încheiată de scurt timp.
