| FOR, SINCE AND AGO Hecho por: Cesar Angulo Grupo: "C" Grado: "2" | |
| The words for, since and ago indicate moments or periods of time, and are normally used with the simple past and the present perfect. | To summarize, the difference is that: present perfect speaks many times of actions that have not finished. They started in the past and continue now. Or, they are things that happened at an indeterminate moment in the past and could continue to happen now: the typical I've been to Italy several times. Have you ever been to Italy? |
