Present Perfect Simple
Le Present Perfect Simple est utilisé pour connecter le passé avec le présent. On le forme avec have / has + le participe passé. Pour la plupart des verbes, le participe passé est identique à la forme Past Simple (par exemple, play → played).
Certains verbes changent leur orthographe (par exemple, study → studied), et beaucoup sont irréguliers (par exemple, go → gone, write → written). Vous pouvez trouver une liste complète des verbes irréguliers dans les leçons associées ci-dessous.
