Present Perfect tenses

Have + (already/just) + verb in the past participle + (yet)

Has

We use the present perfect to:

- To talk about the recent past, not saying exactly when things happened.
- To refer to finished actions that have present results
- To say that something started in the past and is still true now.

We use JUST to say that something happened recently

We use ALREADY to say that something happened before now (but we don’t
know exactly when).
We use YET in negative and interrogative sentences
