Time Expressions
Time expressions help understand when an action happened. In the present perfect tense, words like “already,” “yet,” “for,” “since,” “just,” “ever,” and “never” are used to give clear time context.
Already and Yet
Already is used in positive sentences to show that something has happened sooner than expected. For example, “She has already finished her homework.” It indicates that the action is completed.
Yet is used in negative sentences and questions to talk about something that hasn’t happened but is expected to. For instance, “Has he finished his homework yet?” and “He has not finished his homework yet.”
For and Since
For is used to talk about a period of time. For example, “They have lived here for ten years.” It shows the duration of time.
Since points to the starting time of an action. For example, “They have lived here since 2010.” It tells when the action began.
Just
Just is used to indicate a recently completed action. For example, “She has just finished her lunch.” It highlights that the action happened in the very recent past.
Ever and Never
Ever is used in questions and negative sentences to refer to any time up to now. For example, “Have you ever visited France?” It asks about any past experience.
Never is used to mean not at any time. For instance, “He has never visited France.” It means not once in the past timeframe.
