Question
When is present tense used?
How to use present tense and present perfect? I'm confused the difference between the two.
ANSWER:
Look at the time expression.
Present Tense uses every day, every week, every ~, on Saturdays (It's a daily routine/or weekly or monthy; or it's just a fact)
Present Perfect uses lately, for, since, already, for the first time ~(from past to present events) |
