4. Para formar in inglés
To form the present participle we combine
the helping verb “have/has” with a past

In Spanish we form the present participle by
combining the present tense of the verb haber (the
helping verb, or el verbo auxiliar) with a past
participle
For example:

I have danced.
Nosotros no hemos estudiado para el
examen.
We haven’t studied for the test.

How to form the past participle:

add –ido
