    The past simple tense is used to describe completed actions in the past, actions that occurred in chronological order, or repeated actions. It uses the past tense of the verb. The present perfect tense describes unfinished time and actions that began in the past and continue to the present, or have relevance in the present. It uses the present tense of "have" plus the past participle of the main verb. The key difference is that the past simple expresses fully completed past actions while the present perfect connects past actions to the present.
