Англійська мова. Теорія і практика. Вживання часів. Ричард Грант

ridden a horse! – Я їздив верхи! (неважливо, коли це було)

      I rode a horse yesterday morning! – Вчора вранці я їздив верхи! (конкретний момент у минулому)

      2. Закінчений період часу або поточний.

      Якщо ми говоримо про період часу, який все ще триває, вживаємо Present Perfect. Часто на поточний період вказують такі слова-маркери, як today (сьогодні), this week (на цьому тижні), this month (в цьому місяці) i this year (цього року).

      Якщо період закінчений, використовуємо Past Simple. На нього вказують наступні слова-маркери: last week (минулого тижня), last month (минулого місяця), last year (минулого року).

      I haven’t seen you in the office this week. – Я не бачив тебе в офісі цього тижня. (тиждень не закінчився)

      I didn’t see Sofie at work last week. – Я не бачив Софі на роботі минулого тижня. (минулий тиждень закінчився)

      3. Зв'язок з теперішнім часом і факт з минулого.

      У Present Perfect завжди є якась прив'язка до сьогодення, тоді як за допомогою Past Simple можна просто викласти факти про минуле.

      We’re so happy! We have learnt English! – Ми такі щасливі! Ми вивчили англійську! (ми щасливі зараз – прив'язка до сьогодення)

      Ivan learned English at school. – Іван вчив англійську в школі. (факт з минулого)
