Present Perfect (“ed” and “en”) ending Structure English Grammar Primary 3 Third Term Week 5
Topic: Present Perfect Tense with “ed” and “en” Endings
Today, class, we will be exploring the present perfect tense with “ed” and “en” endings. This tense is used to talk about actions or events that happened in the past but have a connection to the present. Let’s dive into the key points:
- Formation of Present Perfect Tense:
- Use “have” with pronouns: I, you, we, and they.
- Use “has” with pronouns: he, she, and it.
- Add “ed” or “en” to the base form of the verb to create the past participle.
- Adding “ed” to Verbs:
- Most regular verbs form their past participle by adding “ed” to the base form.
- Examples:
- Play (base form) -> Played (past participle)
- Walk (base form) -> Walked (past participle)
- Adding “en” to Verbs:
- Some irregular verbs form their past participle by adding “en” to the base form.
- Examples:
- Drive (base form) -> Driven (past participle)
- Speak (base form) -> Spoken (past participle)
- Examples of Present Perfect Sentences:
- I have played football.
- She has read the book.
- They have written letters.
- He has eaten his lunch.
- We have seen the movie.
- Asking Questions:
- To form questions, invert the subject and the auxiliary verb “have” or “has.”
- Examples:
- Have you watched the movie?
- Has he finished his homework?
- Negative Sentences:
- To form negative sentences, use “not” after the auxiliary verb “have” or “has.”
- Examples:
- I have not seen him today.
- She has not completed her work.
Remember, class, the present perfect tense helps us talk about past actions with a connection to the present. Use “have” or “has” with the past participle to form this tense. Regular verbs add “ed,” while some irregular verbs add “en.” Practice using this tense in your speaking and writing to become more confident.
