PRESENT PERFECT

El presente perfecto se forma con el verbo HAVE como auxiliar y con el participio pasado del
verbo principal. Para formar oraciones seguimos las siguientes estructuras:

AFIRMATIVA: Sujeto+ Have/Has+ Participio pasado+ Complemento.

I have played baseball in the new team.
She has sung in the festival twice.
INTERROGATIVA: Have/Has+ Sujeto+ Participio pasado+ Complemento+ ?

Have you watched t.v. all the night?

Has he written an exercise to his students?
NEGATIVA: Sujeto+ Haven´t/ Hasn´t+ Participio pasado+ Complemento.

We haven´t understood the reading easily.

She hasn´t prayed for her dead brother.
NOTA: Debemos tener en cuenta que el verbo HAVE con la tercera persona del singular lo
utilizamos como HAS.
HAVE: I- YOU- WE- THEY

HAS: SHE- HE- IT

También el participio pasado de los verbos regulares se forma igual que el pasado agregando
ed. Pero el de los verbos irregulares no lo formamos, ellos tienen su propio participio
pasado, que lo conseguimos en la lista de estos verbos.
