The present perfect tells us about the past and the present.

have/has + past participle POSITIVE I/you/we/they have gone. OR I/you/we/they've gone. He/she/it has gone. OR He/she/it's gone. NEGATIVE I/you/we/they haven‘t gone. He/she/it hasn‘t gone.

INTERROGATIVE Have I/you/we/they gone? Has he/she/it gone? SHORT ANSWERS Yes, I have. OR No, I haven’t. Yes, he has. OR No, he hasn’t.

When we use the present perfect, we see things as happening in the past but having a result in the present. I’ve bought some presents.

We use the present perfect with today and phrases with this, e.g. this morning, this week, this year. We've done quite a good job today.

When we ask / talk about our experience Have you ever been to London? No, I haven’t. And you?

With lately and recently meaning “in the last few days/weeks” Have I told you lately that I love you?

With just to express the action finished a short time ago We’ve just come back from our holiday.

With already meaning “sooner than expected” I’ve already finished my dinner.

With yet in negative sentences and questions when we expect something to happen Sorry, Nick. I haven’t finished the homework yet.

We can use the present perfect with for and since. We use for to say how long this period is (for three days). We use since to say when the period began (since Friday). Me, too. I haven’t grabbed a bite since Friday. Thanks, darling. I haven’t eaten anything for three days.
