Week 3rd- 5th March
Hi everybody!
Sorry for the delay in posting the blog.
What did we do last week?
We studied the use of already, yet and just with present perfect, as well as the use of for, since and ago.
Already
and yet have the same meaning, but
their position in the sentence is different. Yet, goes at the end of
the sentence whilst already has a mid-position, that is, it goes before the main
verb – the same position as adverbs of frequency.
Study these
sentences:
? Have you
finished the exercise yet?
- I haven’t finished yet.
+ I’ve already
finished.
The structure, to have + just +
participle refers to an action that has been completed a short time
ago.
I’ve just arrived
home. (Right now. A short time ago)
Use of the
prepositions, for, since, ago with present
perfect or past simple.
·
Since is only
used with perfect tenses.
He’s lived in Madrid since
2006.
·
Ago is only used with past
simple.
He moved to Madrid 8 years ago.
·
For can be used with both
tenses but the meaning of the sentences is different.
He lived in Santander for six
years. He doesn’t
live in Santander.
He’s lived in Santander for six
years. He’s
probably living in Santander
now.
We went
shopping.
