Recursos

Es momento de revisar la segunda forma de usar el presente perfecto: los eventos que ocurrieron en el pasado, pero que siguen ocurriendo en el presente.

I have worked at Platzi for a year / He trabajado en Platzi durante un año.

  • When did Jhon work at Platzi? / ¿Cuándo trabajó Jhon en Platzi?
  • Jhon is working at Platzi right now. / Jhon está trabajando en Platzi en este momento.
  • Jhon joined Platzi 1 year ago. / Jhon se unió a Platzi hace 1 año.

En esta oración sabemos que esta persona empezó a trabajar en Platzi hace un año y que sigue trabajando allí.

Ejemplos utilizando el present perfect

Revisemos unas oraciones para entenderlas mejor.

  • I haven’t finished this class. / No he terminado esta clase.
    La clase empezó en algún momento, pero aún estás en ella.
  • I have eaten pizza today. / Hoy he comido pizza.
    Comiste pizza en el día, pero el día aún no ha terminado. ¡Puedes comer pizza de nuevo!
  • I have been to my sister’s house this week. / He estado en casa de mi hermana esta semana.

Esta oración es un poco más compleja y depende del contexto. Puedes referirte a que has estado en la casa de tu hermano, pero ya no estás allí. También puede ser que has estado en casa de tu hermana, pero la semana aún no ha terminado, por lo que puedes seguir estando allí. Dependiendo del contexto, determinas si la acción ya no sucede en el presente o sí.

Leamos estas tres oraciones y analicemos si los eventos descritos ya sucedieron (past) o aún están sucediendo (still happening).

Actions that started in the past and are still continuing

1st exercise:

  • We have had many adventures this year.

I think this is a tricky one, depends on the context if the year is finishing and you want to summarize, can be a past action. Although I think is more natural to express something that happened in the past but, as the year is not finished yet, the action is continuing in the present because we still can have more adventures this year.

  • Mary has moved to London.

This action happened in the past. Mary moved to London at some point in the past and the action of moving out ended there.

  • The movie hasn’t finished yet.

This action is still happening at the present becuase the movie started in the past but it is not over.
