9 Present perfect

Настоящее совершенное время

↑ Past time

1) Образование форм Present perfect

а) Утвердительные формы:

Утвердительные формы Present perfect образуются с помощью вспомогательного глагола have в настоящем времени и причастия прошедшего времени Past participle смыслового глагола (Main verbs).

I have done the exercise.

He has eaten the apple.

б) Общий вопрос ( Yes-No question):

При построении вопроса вспомогательный глагол have в настоящем времени ставится перед подлежащим (Subject) предложения.

Have you done the exercise?

Has he eaten the apple?

в) Отрицательные формы:

Отрицательные предложения образуются путем прибавления к вспомогательному глаголу have в настоящем времени отрицательной частицы not/ n't.

I haven't done the exercise.

He hasn't eaten the apple.

2) Употребление Present perfect для обозначения прошедшего времени (Past time)

Present perfect употребляется для обозначения действия или события, происходившего в прошлом и имеющего связь с настоящим.

а) Present perfect употребляется при описании события, произошедшего в прошлом и являющегося актуальным, существенным, значимым для момента речи. Present perfect часто используется с наречиями lately, recently и just

I' ve washed my hands so I can help you with the cooking — Я помыл руки и могу помочь тебе с готовкой

I have forgotten his name — Я забыл его имя (и не помню его сейчас).

I' ve broken my pencil. Can you give me another one? — Я сломал свой карандаш. Не дашь мне другой?

Jack has gone to Germany — Джек уехал в Германию (и он до сих пор там)

б) Present perfect употребляют, когда хотят объявить нечто или сообщить о чем-то, что произошло только что либо совсем недавно.

I've just hurt my elbow — Я вот ушиб локоть.

She hasn't received any letters from him lately — Последнее время она не получала (не получает) от него писем.

в) Present perfect используется при описании события, которое развивалось или повторялось в период времени, охватывающий момент речи. Present perfect употребляется с выражениями, обозначающими период времени, который к моменту речи еще не закончился, такими как today, this morning, this evening, this term, this week, so far, up to now. Момент начала действия может уточняться с помощью временного предлога и союза since, а то, как долго протекало описываемое действие, — с помощью временного предлога for. Present perfect часто используется с наречиями already, never, ever, yet.

I have eaten ten apples today — Я съела сегодня десять яблок (может быть успею съесть еще пять, до того как кончится сегодняшний день).

I haven't seen him for forty years — Я не видел его сорок лет.

Since then I' ve practiced law in Washington — С тех пор я занимаюсь юридической практикой в Вашингтоне.

I have never been to America — Я никогда не был в Америке.

He has already admitted making a mistake and apologized — Он уже признал ошибку и извинился.

г) Present perfect используется при обозначении события, которое рассматривается как факт жизни, из которого можно черпать жизненный опыт или делать умозаключения. То, когда именно произошло данное событие, не важно или неизвестно. Существенно, что событие вообще имело место.

I' ve seen this man — Я видела этого человека (не важно когда)

I' ve read "War and Peace" — Я читала "Войну и мир".

Have you seen "The silence of the Lambs"? — Вы (вообще) смотрели "Молчание ягнят"? (ср. Did you see "The silence of the Lambs"? в значении Вы смотрели "Молчание ягнят" вчера по первому каналу?)

д) Present perfect используется, если указано, сколько раз в период времени, охватывающий момент речи, произошло некоторое событие.

I' ve been to London three times — Я был в Лондоне три раза.

е) Present perfect не употребляется, если есть указание на дату, точное время или период времени, закончившийся в прошлом. В этом случае используется Past simple.

I saw him last week — Я видел его на прошлой неделе (нельзя сказать * I've seen him last week).

ж) Present perfect используется с выражениями this is the first time, it's the first time.

It's the first time I' ve seen a horse — Я увидел лошадь первый раз (в жизни).

3) Употребление Present perfect для обозначения будущего времени (Future time).

Present perfect используется в придаточных предложениях времени ( Adverbial clause of time) вместо времени Future perfect( will have done).

After I have read the book, I'll give it to you — После того как я прочту эту книгу, я дам ее тебе.

Note:

L'equivalente inglese di sempre è generalmente always, che precede il verbo quando questo è in forma semplice (tranne to be) e segue il primo ausiliare quando il verbo è composto: si dimentica sempre le chiavi = she always forgets her keys; è sempre in ritardo = she is always late; ci siamo sempre aiutati = we've always helped each other. - Quando è usato in italiano come rafforzativo davanti al comparativo, sempre non si traduce e si usa un doppio comparativo: sempre più stanco = more and more tired; sempre più grasso = fatter and fatter; sempre meglio = better and better. - Va infine notato che, sebbene always indichi azione ripetuta e pertanto si usi normalmente con il presente abituale, è impiegato con il presente progressivo quando si vuole dare una connotazione negativa all'azione: mia moglie è sempre al telefono = my wife is always speaking on the phone
