      • The negative is really simple too. Just put 'not' after 'have' or 'has':
      1. I have not eaten breakfast today
   2. positive

      Annotations:

      • To make the positive present perfect tense, use:'have' / 'has' + the past participleMake the past participle by adding 'ed' to regular verbs (for example, 'play' becomes 'played')There are a few verbs that change their spelling when you add 'ed' (for example, 'study' becomes 'studied')We also have some completely irregular verbs
      1. I have played
   3. question

      Annotations:

      • To make a question, put 'have' or 'has' in front of the subject:
      1. have I missed the bus?

1. continous

   Annotations:

   • How can we make the past continuous? Firstly, check that you know how to make the past simple with 'be' (subject + was / were). Then just add verb-ing.
   1. positive
      1. I was sleeping
   2. negative
      1. I was not (wasn't) sleeping
   3. question
      1. Was I listening?
2. perfect simple

   Annotations:

   • We don't use the past perfect a lot in English, but it is useful, and it sounds very good if you can use it correctly. Also, it's really easy to make - just the past simple of 'have' and the past participle.
   1. positive
      1. I had been
   2. negative
      1. I had not been
   3. question
      1. Had I come?
3. simple

   Annotations:

   • It's similar to the present simple because it has different rules for the verb 'be', which becomes 'was' or 'were': The Past Simple with 'be' Here's how to make the positive:
   1. positive
      1. I was cold
   2. negative
      1. I was not sleepy
   3. question
      1. was I sleepy?
