I HAVE DONE ( Present Perfect ) or I DID ( Past Simple )

O tempo verbal Ingls Present Perfect refere-se a algo iniciado no passado e que continua ate hoje, tendo portanto um tempo indefinido. Veja s: Em portugues dizemos:"Eu trabalho aqui ha 2 anos" - querendo dizer que entrei na empresa faz 2 anos e ainda estou la. Poderiamos dizer tambm:"Tenho trabalhado aqui por 2 anos" - esta a forma do Present Perfect que apesar de "no existir oficialmente" na gramtica portuguesa usado tranquilamente no dia a dia,certo? Em ingls ha uma diferena entre o uso desses dois tempos verbais.Veja: With a finished time ( yesterday / last week , etc ... ), we use the Past Simple Com um tempo definido (ontem / semena passada,etc.) usamos o Simple Past yesterday last week We arrived at 3 oclock in 1995 six months ago DO NOT USE the Present Perfect with a finished time .
