present perfect-simple-or-continuous
1.
2. PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE
THE PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE LOOKS AT RESULTS. WHAT DO
WE MEAN WHEN WE SAY, “I HAVE MADE THE BED.”?
WE MADE THE BED AND RIGHT NOW, IT IS MADE.
3. PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS
THE PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS LOOKS AT ACTIONS WE
WERE DOING IN THE PAST. THEY MAY HAVE STOPPED

WE DO NOT USE THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS TO REFER TO
ACTIONS FROM THE PAST. THE PRESENT CONTINUOUS IN
ENGLISH IS EITHER FOR ACTIONS AT THIS MOMENT OR FOR
FUTURE ACTIONS, SO IT IS CONFUSING AND WRONG TO HEAR
SENTENCES LIKE THIS:
“I AM WORKING HERE FOR 5 YEARS.” WHAAAATTTTT????
RIGHT NOW? FOR 5 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE? HOW? WHAT?
WHEN? YOU SHOULD SAY, “I’VE BEEN WORKING HERE FOR 5
YEARS.”
