The present perfect tense expresses an action that began in the past and is now completed in the present. Thunk occurs as the past tense and past participle of think in some regional dialects and is occasionally used in a jokey kind of way. Let’s start by talking about present perfect verbs. Verbs can appear in any one of three perfect tenses: present perfect, past perfect, and future perfect. In English, participles are also sometimes used to form compound words like “is going.” A past participle, in the context we’re using it today, is the second part of a compound verb that’s used to form perfect and passive tenses. Participles are words made out of verbs but used as adjectives. We can also use hope to talk about the past when we think it was.

The perfect form is the verb tense used to talk about a completed action or condition and always uses a form of “have” or “had,” plus the past participle. We can use the present simple (mostly for stative verbs) or the present continuous. The tense of a verb refers to the time of the action or state of being. Remember that verbs are words that describe an action, occurrence, or state of being. Technically, would is the past tense of will, but it is an auxiliary verb that has many uses, some of which even express the present tense.


Today we’re going to be talking about the difference between present perfect, past perfect, and future perfect verb tenses. I wish, if only, Id rather, Its time, what if, supposing, etc.
