The document summarizes the present perfect tense and future tense in English. The present perfect tense uses "have" plus the past participle to indicate an action that began in the past and continues in the present or an action that is completed. The future tense in English does not have inflected verb forms but instead uses "will" or "be going to" plus the base verb form to indicate future time. It provides examples and explanations of the structures used to form the present perfect and future tenses in sentences.

2. The Present Perfect
Tense is formed with a
present tense form of "to
have" plus the past
participle of the verb
(which can be either
regular or irregular in form).
The Future Tense indicates
that an action is in the
future relative to the
speaker or writer. There are
no inflected forms for the
future in English (nothing
like those ed or s endings in
the other tenses).

3. The present perfect tense indicates
either that an action was completed
(finished or "perfected") at some point in
the past or that the action extends to the
present:
 I have walked two miles already
[but I'm still walking].
 I have run the Boston Marathon
[but that was some time ago].
 The critics have praised the film
Saving Private Ryan since it came
out [and they continue to do so].

4. The "perfect present" of
any verb is composed of
two elements: the
appropriate form of the
auxiliary verb to have
(present) and the "past
participle" of the main verb.
Subject Auxiliar Verb Short Form Past Participle
I, you, we,

have
I’ve, you’ve,
we’ve, they’ve
talked,

he, she, it has he’s, she’s, it’s
talked,
learned,

5. Will
Instead, the future tense employs the helping verbs
will or shall with the base form of the verb:
 She will leave soon.
 We shall overcome.
The future is also formed with the use of
a form of "go" plus the infinitive of the
verb:
 He is going to faint.
English can even use the present to
suggest the future tense:
 I am leaving later
today.
