Grammar topic unit 1a

We use both the present perfect simple and the present perfect continuous to talk about situations or actions which started in the past and continue into the present.Sometimes there is no important difference between the two tenses, particularly with verbs such as work, live and study.Mauro has lived/has been living in Bologna since 2010.However, there are also some important differences between the two.

Let's look at the form

I / see / that new Wes Anderson film / five times now.

We use the present perfect simple to answer the questions:

‘How many?’, ‘How much?’ or ‘How far?’

It is also completed.

You / work / on that report / all morning!

We use the present perfect continuous to describe actions that are unfinished or in progress.

Ben / never try / horse-riding / because he / scared of horses!

We also use the present perfect simple with the words always, ever and never to talk about experiences and habits.

He / take / a year off / go travelling.

We use the present perfect simple, NOT the present perfect continuous, with state verbs, to talk about states or situations that started in the past and are in progress.

I / look / for you / the last half an hour!

We use the present perfect continuous to describe actions that are unfinished or in progress.
