Рiзниця мiж The Past Simple i The Present Perfect
1. Говоримо чи не говоримо, коли щось сталося.
У Present Perfect має значення факт вчинення дії і не має значення, коли саме вона відбулася. У Past Simple зазвичай вказується, коли саме відбулася дія.
Слова-маркери у Past Simple: yesterday (вчора), in 2015 (в 2015), ago (тому назад), when I was younger (коли я був молодший) та інші.
I have 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 теперешнiм 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)
