Past participle with have and has. B1- intermediate:


 The present perfect tense with "since" is used to indicate a specific point in the past when an action started. Here are some examples: 


  • "I've lived here since 2012"
  • "She has lived here since 1980"
  • "We have taught at this school since 1965"
  • "Alice has been married since March 2nd"
  • "They have been at the hotel since last Tuesday"
  • "I've been ill since last Friday"
  • "Farooq has drunk three cups of coffee since two o'clock"
  • "I haven't eaten anything since I got up"
  • "I've known Alex since primary school"

The present perfect tense is formed with the subject, "have/has" (positive) or "haven't/hasn't" (negative), and the past participle. 



In contrast, "for" is used to indicate a length of time. For example, "I've worked for this company for 20 years". 


The present perfect tense is used with "for" to describe a period of time up to the present. 


For example:


"I've worked for this company for 20 years". 


Here are some other examples of using the present perfect with "for": 


  • "We haven't seen her for ages"
  • "Have you lived here for more than two years?"
  • "I have lived in Italy for two months"
  • "I have worked here for five years"
  • "We have had a dog for eight years"

The present perfect tense is formed by using the subject, "have/has" (positive) or "haven't/hasn't" (negative), and the past participle. 



"For" can also be used with the simple past, while "since" can only be used with perfect tenses. 



Have/ has past participle:


The auxiliary verbs "has" and "have" are used with past participles to form the present perfect tense: 


  • Present perfect tense: "Have" or "has" + past participle
  • Example: "Olga has promised to help me"

The present perfect tense is used to describe an action that started in the past and may still be happening. It can also be used to indicate experience up to the present, recent actions, or a change over time.
