The Present
Perfect Tense
And Using Past
Participles
Reviewing Compound Tenses
• You should remember the
“present progressive”
compound tense used to
express actions in
progress.
ex: Miguel está comprando un anillo
para su novia.
• It is called a compound
tense because it has two
parts.
1: Estar +
2: Present
Participle
(Which is the verb stem
plus :
Ar verbs - ando
Er/Ir verbs – iendo)
Importants Points
• Remember that with pronouns
(reflexive, indirect object, direct object,
etc.) there are two rules:
– It should be placed before the conjugated
verb
• Ex: Me estoy cuidando.
– Or placed attatched to the infinitive
• Ex: Estoy cuidándome.
Práctica

• They are writing

The Present Perfect
• To say that someone
has or has not done
something we use the
present perfect. In
English it looks
something like this:
I have finished.
• Note that there are two
parts to its formation
which makes it a
compound tense.
Forming the Present Perfect
•
In Spanish the present perfect is formed
with the present tense of the auxiliary
verb haber + the past participle.
–
Ex: (Yo) he terminado.
HABER+ past participle
•
Haber is conjugated as follows:
he
has
ha
hemos
habéis
han
Forming the Past Participle
• The past participle is formed by
adding –ado to the stem of –ar verbs
and –ido to the stem of –er and –ir
verbs.
• Verb
ex: tomar
comer
vivir
Participle
tomado
comido
vivido
Meaning
taken
eaten
lived

Uses of Participles
• In both English and Spanish, past
participles may be used as adjectives to
modify a noun. In Spanish, when the past
participle is used as an adjective, it agrees
in gender and number with the noun it
modifies.
• Ex:
– Esa pintura fue hecha en Perú.
That painting was done in Peru.
– La catedral fue construida en 1560.
The cathedral was built in 1560.
Uses of the Present Perfect
• In general, the present perfect is used to
refer to a past action or event that is
perceived as having some bearing on the
present.
– Mis padres han experimentado muchas
dificultades.
My parents have experienced many difficulties.
• The verb haber agrees with the subject of
the sentence. The past participle, however,
does not change according to the subject
when it forms part of the perfect tense
because it is not a adjective.
Rules with the Present Perfect
• The verb haber is not interchangable
with tener. Haber means to have
only when used as an auxilary verb
with the past participle. Tener means
to have or to own in the sense of
possesion.
More Rules with the Present
Perfect
• The verb haber and the past participle
annot be separated by another word.
Object pronouns and negative words
are always placed before haber.
– ex:¿Has conocido al señor malhumorado?
Have you met the bad- tempered man?
No lo he conocido todavía.
No, I haven’t met him yet.
