The present perfect, also known as the simple present perfect or the present perfect in Spanish, is one of the present tenses in English. Its correct use is necessary to express experiences or memories that occurred long ago, but which are still remembered or are important today. Thanks to this, its use is very common and it is important to know it perfectly.

Uses of the Present Perfect

The use of the present perfect in Spanish is similar to its use in English. It is used to indicate that an action or event took place in the past but is relevant or continues in the present. It is common to see this structure in the "Have you...?" type questions.
