Present Perfect

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USE 1 Unspecified Time Before
Now

We use the
Present Perfect to say that an action happened at an unspecified
time before now. The exact time is not important. You CANNOT
use the Present Perfect with time expressions such as "yesterday,"
"one year ago," "last week," "when I was a boy," "when I lived in
Japan," "at that moment," "that day" or "one day." We CAN use
the Present Perfect with expressions like "ever," "never," "once,"
"many times," "several times," "before," "so far," "already" and
"yet."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USE 2
Duration From Past Until Now (Non-continuous Verbs)

With
Non-continuous Verbs and some non-continuous uses of Mixed Verbs, we
use the Present Perfect to show that something started in the past
and has continued up until now. "For five minutes," "for two weeks"
and "since Tuesday" are all durations which can be used with the
Present Perfect.
