ORIENTACIONES
You need to pay attention and remember the verbs in Past
participle to make statements in Present Perfect Simple and

Present Perfect Continuous.

Dont forget that for making sentences in these grammar tenses
is neccesary to use auxiliaries HAVE or HAS.

We use auxiliary HAVE with I, You,We, They and the auxiliary

HAS for He, She and It.
To ask question we just invert, so start with the auxiliary.
In some cases the meaning is similar when using Present
Perfect Simple or Continuous.

years.

CONCLUSIONES Y/O ACTIVIDADES DE

INVESTIGACIN SUGERIDAS

Remember for making statements in present perfect you need to put

auxiliaries have or has and the VERB ( Past participle ).

We use the Present perfect to talk about activities that started in the

past and continues to the present. For talking about experiences or for
actions that just had happened.

We use The Present Perfect continuous for an action that continues

over a period of time up to now ; and also for repeated actions.

The structure is : subject+ auxiliary (have/has) +been +verb (ing ) +

Complement
