Часто студенти плутають два часи: Present Perfect та Past Simple, помилково вважаючи, що обидва вони відносяться до минулого. Якщо ви займаєтеся з репетитором, то він вам з легкістю зможе пояснити різницю, якщо ж ви самостійно вивчаєте англійську мову, то радимо вам звернути увагу на статтю «Present Perfect vs. Past Simple».
