EL PRESENTE PERFECTO
El tiempo presente perfecto que es “HAVE Y HAS” se utiliza con algún verbo en PARTICIPIO SI NO HA PARTICIPIO, EN PASADO COMO TODOS LOS VERBOS REGULARES, PERO LOS IRREGULARES LA MAYORIA TIENEN PARTICIPIO.
I, YOU, THEY, WE ( HAVE ) (HAVEN’T) HE, SHE, IT (HAS) (HASN’T)
EJEMPLO: I HAVE MAILED THE GIFT, JACK HAS MAILED THE GIFT
REGULAR AND IRREGULAR VERBS
Los verbos regulares y irregulars, para formar su pasado, tienen siertas reglas, los regulares, se agrega “ED” o “D” al final de la palabra; pero los irregulars, NO es decir cambian totalmente su forma.
Si la palabra contienen la ultima letra que se “E”, solo se agrega “D”, pero si no tiene tal letra se agrega “ED” y a los verbos que terminan en “Y” se quita la “Y” y se agrega “IED”
Para la pronunciación de la terminación “ED” hay 3 Reglas
1.- si la palabra termina en “D” o “T” la terminación “ED” se pronuncia como una silaba más. ejemplo
visit visited pronunciation visited
wait waited want wanted need needed
2.- si la palabra termina con sonido de “C, CH, F, K, P, S, SH, X” la terminación “ED” se pronuncia como “T”, incorporando el sonido de la “T” en la pronunciación de la ultima sílaba, o cuando el verbo conste de una sola sílaba en esta misma..
Ejemplo:
Ask ---- asked pronunciation askt like ---- liked pronunciation likt
Look ---- looked lookt talk ---- talked talkt
3.- en todos los demás casos, la terminación “ED” se pronuncia, haciendo muda la “E”
ejemplo
call ---- called pronunciation cald
clean ----- cleaned cleand

El Pretérito
El pretérito (pasado) se utiliza para referir acciones o situaciones del pasado.
EL PASADO SIMPLE (Simple Past)
El pasado simple funciona de manera similar al Presente simple, salvo que empleamos el auxiliar 'did' para todas las personas (incluida la tercera persona singular 'he/she/it'). En la forma afirmativa, el auxiliar 'did' no aparece, empleando en su lugar la erminación 'ed'. Esta es la forma de pasado para todos los 'Verbos Regulares'
Existe un amplio conjunto de verbos que no cumplen esta condición, es decir, para la forma afirmativa no emplean la terminación 'ed' sino que su forma es irregular. No siguen ninguna regla, por lo que la única manera de conocer su forma de pasado es aprenderla. Se denominan 'Verbos Irregulares'.
AFIRMATIVA
NEGATIVA
I playedYou playedHe playedWe playedYou playedThey played
Yo juguéTú jugasteÉl jugóNosotros jugamosVosotros jugasteis Ellos jugaron
I did not playYou did not playHe did not playWe did not playYou did not playThey did not play
Yo no juguéTú no jugasteÉl no jugóNosotros no jugamosVosotros no jugasteis Ellos no jugaron
INTERROGATIVA
INT.-NEGATIVA
Did I play?Did you play?Did he play?Did we play?Did you play?Did they play?
¿Jugué?¿Jugaste?¿Jugó?¿Jugamos?¿Jugasteis?¿Jugaron?
Didn't I play?Didn't you play?Didn't he play?Didn't we play?Didn't you play?Didn't they play?
¿No jugué?¿No jugaste?¿No jugó?¿No jugamos?¿No jugasteis?¿No jugaron?
USO DEL PASADO SIMPLE
a.) Para acciones pasadas. Indican el período de tiempo durante el que se desarrolló y completó una acción ya finalizada. Es habitual que vaya acompañado de un adverbio de tiempo.
I bought this car last year / Compré este coche el año pasado
b.) Para expresar una acción indeterminada en el pasado:
They used pencils and paper / Utilizaron lápices y papel
c.) Para expresar una acción habitual en el pasado
They never drank alcohol / Nunca bebían alcohol
d.) Puede servir para expresar una condición improbable.
If I saw her, I should speak to her / Si le viera le hablaría
EL PASADO CONTINUO (Past Continuous)
Su estructura se forma con el pretérito del verbo auxiliar to be + el gerundio del verbo que se quiere conjugar.
I was playing / Estuve jugando
Para la forma negativa se añade la 'not' al auxiliar
I was not playing / No estuve jugando
En la forma interrogativa se invierte el orden del sujeto y el auxiliar:
Was I playing? / ¿Estuve jugando?
USO DEL PASADO CONTINUO
a.) Para expresar una acción que se estaba desarrollando en el pasado pero cuyo fin no conocemos o carece de importancia:
It was raining / Estaba lloviendo
b.) Para expresar dos acciones que se desarrollan simultáneamente
I was reading the newspaper while I was walking home / Estaba leyendo el periódico mientras volvía a casa caminando
c.) Para expresar dos acciones que se desarrollan en el pasado, una de las cuales tuvo su comienzo antes que la otra:
When I arrived John was talking on the phone / Cuando llegué John estaba hablando por teléfono.
EL PRETÉRITO PERFECTO (Present Perfect)
El pretérito perfecto, se forma con el presente del verbo 'have' a modo de auxiliar y el participio pasivo del verbo que se conjuga según la siguiente construcción:
to have + participio del verbo a conjugar
I have playedYou have playedHe has playedWe have playedYou have playedThey have played
Yo he jugadoTú has jugadoÉl ha jugadoNosotros hemos jugadoVosotros habéis jugadoEllos han jugado
La forma interrogativa, se obtiene anteponiendo el auxiliar al sujeto.
Have you played? / ¿Has jugado?
En la forma negativa se coloca 'not' después del auxiliar:
He has not played / Él no ha jugado
La forma interrogativa-negativa tiene la construcción auxiliar + not + sujeto
Haven't you played? / ¿No has jugado?
USO DEL PRETÉRITO PERFECTO (Present Perfect)
El ‘present perfect simple’ conecta / une el pasado y el presente de una manera parecida al pretérito perfecto en español. Si decimos que algo ha ocurrido ('has happened'), pensamos del pasado y del presente a la vez como si hiciesemos un puente del pasado al presente.
Ejemplo:- I can’t do my homework because I’ve lost my book.- No puedo hacer mis deberes porque he perdido mi libro.
Así que muchas veces podemos cambiar una frase del ‘present perfect simple’ al ‘present simple’ y queda con un significado parecido.I’ve lost my book I don’t have it nowHave you seen the new Leonardo Di Caprio film Do you know it .Your sister has left the door open The door is open now Hasn’t Danny got married yet? Is he still single?I’ve finally found a job I have a job nowUsamos el present perfect simple para acciones en el pasado que tienen un significado o relevancia en la actualidad.I’ve passed my driving test! / He aprobado el exámen de conducirHave you seen the gorgeous new secretary? / ¿Has visto a la atractiva nueva secretaria?A terrorist has bombed a bus (acción en el pasado que tiene un significado ahora)Adolf Hitler bombed London (no tiene relevancia ahora)
EL PRETÉRITO PERFECTO PROGRESIVO (Present Perfect Continuous)
Tiene la siguiente construcción:
sujeto + pretérito perfecto de 'to be' + gerundio
I have been playing / He estado jugandoHe has been playing / Él ha estado jugando
En la forma negativa se coloca 'not' después del auxiliar:
I have not been playing / No he estado jugando
La forma interrogativa, se construye invirtiendo la posición del sujeto y el auxiliar:
Have I been playing? / ¿He estado jugando?
La forma interrogativa-negativa sigue la misma construcción que en el pretérito perfecto
Haven't I been playing? / ¿No he estado jugando?
USO DEL PRETÉRITO PERFECTO PROGRESIVO
Se usa cuando se quiere expresar el sentido de la continuidad de una acción que ha comenzado en el pasado, que dura todavía en el presente y que incluso puede continuar en el futuro.
I have been studying English for two years / Estudio inglés desde hace dos años(y continúo estudiándolo en la actualidad)
TIME EXPRESSIONS (Las expresiones de tiempo)
El ‘present perfect’ es usado frecuentemente con las siguientes expresiones de tiempo:
Ever and never
Have you ever been to Scotland? / ¿Has estado alguna vez en Escocia?I’ve never eaten paella. / Nunca he comido paella.Just I’ve just made tea, would you like a cup? / Acabo de hacer té. ¿Quieres una taza?Ana and Jesús have just had a baby / Ana y Jesús acaban de tener un niño.Recently and latelyI’ve recently passed the F.C.E. exam and I’m studying for the C.A.E.Acabo de aprobar el exámen de FCE y estoy estudiando para el CAE.Have you seen John lately? / ¿Has visto a John ultimamente?So farI’ve had three beers so far this evening and it’s only eight o’clock!He tomado hasta ahora tres cervezas esta tarde y sólo son las ocho.Yet and already'yet' - normalmente se utiliza en frases interrogativas y va al final de la oración . Se usa cuando esperamos que algo va a pasar en el futuro, no en el pasado ni en el presente. Have you done your homework yet? / ¿Has terminado ya los deberes?I don’t think Manoli has done the shopping yet. / Creo que Manoli todavía no ha hecho la compra.'already' - se usa en frases afirmativas e interrogativas y normalmente va detrás de los verbos auxiliares o modales y delante de los demás verbos. Con 'already' decimos que algo está en el presente o el pasado, no en el futuro. Yes, I’ve already finished my homework / Sí, ya he terminado mis deberes
En Inglés británico yet y already acompaña habitualmente a los tiempos perfectos. En Inglés Americano prefieren usar los tiempos pasados.
Compara:Have you phoned your mother yet? (UK) Did you phone your mother yet? (USA)I’ve already phoned her (UK) I already phoned her (USA)Since and for'For' - (how long something has lasted) Se usa para decir cuánto tiempo ha durado una acción. En español suele decirse ‘desde hace’.
We’ve had this computer for about six months. / Tenemos esta computadora desde hace unos seis meses.'Since' - (when something started) Se usa como una referencia a un punto de tiempo cuando algo empezó.
