liking and sharing the video i hope that

lots of people can join our lesson and

get some good practice in as i said

today we’re going to look at using have

has and had this lesson is broken into

two main parts this week i’m going to

talk about perfect tenses i’m going to

talk about present perfect past perfect

and future perfect and then last i’m

going to talk about have for ownership

and using it in responsibility patterns

so let’s get started there’s a lot to

cover

i’m going to share the lesson and then

i’m going to begin for this week we have

lots of people joining us welcome

everybody from around the world that is

super cool okay shared let’s get going

okay let’s begin with perfect tense so

perfect tense is i think a challenge in

grammar point for many learners some

people i read your comments some people

say there’s no perfect tense in their

language so let’s take a look first at

present perfect tense present perfect

tense present perfect tense is used i’m

going to cover two uses of present

perfect tense in this lesson so for each

use of perfect tense I’ve drawn this

timeline so that you can kind of see

when we use this grammar point first

point number one

on this timeline it’s a little hard to

see on this timeline this point here

this is now the present this direction

is the future and over here the past use

one of present perfect tense is for life

experience a nonspecific point in the

past so it’s hard to see on this

whiteboard but there’s this kind of

dotted blue line in the past here so

this means an action that happened in

the past but when the action happened is

not important or maybe we don’t know

exactly so this is use one of present

perfect use two was present perfect is

for an action that started in the past

and continues to the present or the

effect

of that action continued to the present

so on the board here I’ve shown it with

this red line yeah so here some actions

started in the past and it continues to

the present so we use this with the

progressive form of a verb the ing form

so let’s take a look at some example

sentences oh sorry for her first let’s

look at how we make it how we make it

with have and taz so to make present

perfect tense we’ll start with our

subject so that means like I or you or

we or he or she and so on then we choose

have or has and we finish with the past

participle form of a verb the past

participle form of a verb is something

we have to study we have to study this

this is a special a special verb type

for each verb so when do we use have

when do we use has let’s take a look at

some example sentences so when your

subject is I or you or we we use half as

in this example I have been to Thailand

I have been to Thailand here I’ve used

the verb have this bin is the past

participle form of B so I have been to

Thailand another example she has never

seen that movie she has never seen that

movie here I used has why because the

subject if the subject of the sentence

is she he or it we have to use has this

sentence I’ve used never as well so

point to make this pattern negative you

can use not or never before the past

participle verb what’s the difference

between not and never never is an

emphasis

it’s like saying at no time at no point

in the past did this happen so she has

not seen that movie it’s also correct

she has never seen that movie is

emphasized we’re emphasizing this thing

okay let’s look at another one this one

uses the progressive form he has been

working here for three years so in this

sentence I’ve used the same he has

because my subject is he my past

participle verb is been the verb that

follows is in the progressive form the

next verb progressive means the ing form

he has been working here for three years

so when you use this one number two

meaning number two typically you’ll use

it with an expression like for three

years or since 2001 or something like

that to express when the action started

okay okay one more example and then

we’ll go to past perfect

we have had enough to eat we have had

enough to eat so this one many learners

get confused when the verb is have so

the past participle form of the verb

have is had so we have had enough to eat

that means I’m full I’m done eating so

this is present perfect tense this is

how we use have and has with this

grammar I don’t see any questions but

please feel free to send your questions

in the chat I will try to answer live as

much as possible hey masa yeah cool

I have taken this class for three years

perfect tongue says she has been living

here for three years

great so sorry sally foote this last

week I haven’t been in school very nice

very nice okay let’s continue on to past

perfect now many of you have asked me

about past perfect so I want to spend

some time talking about this point and

future perfect okay so let’s talk about

past perfect again I want to share two

ways that we use past perfect first to

express the earlier of two past actions

so this is helpful when you are talking

about a point in time in your past like

when you were in elementary school or

when you were a university student

something like that you have a past

point in time and you want to talk about

something before that when you want to

do that and clearly show which action

was first like here’s your first action

and here’s your second action

use past perfect to express the earlier

action and simple past tense to express

the action closest to now so for example

I had met him before

you introduced us at the party so this

part I had met him this is past perfect

tense we make past perfect tense with

subject again just like this subject

plus had plus the past participle verb

form I had met him before you introduced

us so this you introduced me and someone

else yeah this happened here you

introduced us at the party but before

that I met him so we express this

relationship with past perfect tense

okay if you have questions just send

them don’t tell me you have a question

just send it in the chat that’s best for

everybody okay the second use of past

perfect tense is continuing past action

something that was continuing in the

past that was interrupted interrupted us

again it’s hard to see here sorry

there’s a dotted red line to the

derivative that goes to here stopped so

interrupted means it was stopped or

changed in some way so uh for example an

example with this will see this with the

progressive form I had been studying it

was hard to see I have been studying for

two hours when my mom called I had been

studying for two hours when my mom

called so points here this part I had

been follows this grammar pattern I had

been past participle verb is been

studying then so in use to of past

perfect this verb the verb after your

past participle form is in the

progressive or the continuous form ing

then we follow it with another pasta

it’s a simple past tense expression this

is very common with this grammar too

when when marks the point of

interruption let’s see some questions

are coming in so these are my last ones

so if you have questions about this

point I will try to check

biron this morning refers to simple past

or present perfect expression it depends

on the sentence this morning alone can

go in many different directions it

depends on your verb so if you say let’s

have a meeting this morning

it could mean in the future or we met

this morning it could mean in the past

so it depends Wow there are lots of

questions coming in in past perfect may

I use I had had yes yes you may

so that’s a that’s a very common

question with this grammar point past

perfect if your verb if you want to use

the verb half the correct sentence is

had had like I had had dinner by the

time I got home is totally correct I

know it sounds strange to repeat that

word like twice but that’s correct

so had had is correct yes yes some other

things how often do people use past

perfect tense its I would say it’s not

as common as like present perfect tense

it’s hard to say how often but I just a

gut my first reaction is that it’s less

commonly used than present perfect tense

it’s still very important to know Andres

is it correct to say I would have been

studied no it is not correct maybe I had

been studying for two hours for example

it depends on what you wanted to say

what is the difference between past

perfect and past simple I have some

videos on the English class 101 YouTube

channel about that question so please do

a search on the channel you can find

some answers there okay mmm alright okay

let’s take one quick break and then

we’ll continue to these future tenses

section alrighty

uh so in case you missed it earlier I

want to share a couple things you can

find for free if you’re watching on

YouTube you can get these from the link

below the video on YouTube if you are

watching on Facebook you can get these

from the link above the video above the

chat box there these are these are

vocabulary and phrases that you can use

to talk about everyday life or just to

work on building your vocabulary so you

can down these are all in PDF form you

can choose whichever topic is

interesting for you so this is

supermarkets this is trouble from this

one is sports an exercise and dining but

it says dining but actually on the back

there’s just food and expressions like

for complimenting people when they cook

so this might be a nice one okie dokie

so please check that out

blue or above the video if you’re

watching on you YouTube Instagram please

check YouTube or Facebook

okay all right let’s go to let’s see a

couple more questions are coming in can

I explain slim

sorry sim says can I explain why I had

been studying for two hours when my mom

called sure I didn’t break that down

very well

did I I did it quickly okay let’s look

at this one again and then we’ll go to

future tense

future perfect this sentence here there

let’s break this into like two parts

okay so I have been studying this part

right here is my past perfect continuous

I had been studying this part expresses

my continuing action in the past I was

doing this thing here for two hours this

tells me how long I continued that

action how long did that action continue

when this word marks where the action

stopped or was interrupted my mom called

this thing is the past tense simple past

tense one-time action that happened so

these are the parts of this sentence

continuing action how long did the

action continue interruption point

action that interrupted me so I hope

that that helps you can I use present

perfect when action was in the past but

there is a connection with the present

yeah so like this for you if the action

if you want to talk about in effect yes

so something happened in the past and it

continues the effect continues yes

please use present perfect okay I’m

going to go to Future Perfect now cuz

this one is a little bit tricky so let’s

look at a future perfect tense now

please

Facebook okay okay my facebook is

wheeled okay let’s continue to Future

Perfect future perfect so again we have

a timeline here this timeline looks very

similar to the present perfect timeline

well it might be a little difficult to

see on your screen but future perfect

let’s talk about two ways that we use

future perfect tense future perfect

number one is for finished life

experience in the future so this is kind

of strange to think about finished life

experience in the future example by this

time next year I will have finished

university by this time next year I will

have finished university so what is

happening in this sentence I have this

future point in time here I’ll change my

marker color so it’s easier to see

here’s my future point in time by this

time next year so what is what now March

end of March so at this time next year

by this time next year I will have

finished University so I’m talking about

some finished life experience that I

expect in the future so that’s kind of

that’s what I’m trying to communicate

with this blue dotted line here it’s in

the future so there’s something I expect

is going to happen at a future point in

time so what is happening in this

sentence

in this sentence let’s focus on this

part I will have finished University we

have our subject then with future

perfect we use will have will have and

the past participle form of the verb

again I will have finished University

when we use this grammar point we

typically use an expression like this by

some point in time by some future point

in time so please let’s be careful of

this I’m going to talk about

prepositions with this grammar point by

shows like a deadline for something so a

deadline for a future action by this

time next year so that means I’m going

to do many things until this time next

year at which point I will have finished

University ole on Facebook says next

year I will have finished my school

excellent that is very cool ok on to

another example sentence let’s look at a

weather example sentence a weather

example sentence it will have stopped

raining by tomorrow it will have stopped

raining by tomorrow when we talk about

the weather we usually use it yeah like

it’s sunny or it’s cloudy or it’s

raining when we want to talk about a

prediction for the weather future

prediction it will have stopped stopped

is the past participle form of the verb

so I’m talking about this future

experience with this grammar point you

could say like it will stop raining by

tomorrow the difference there it will

stop raining tomorrow is like that

sentence is like a prediction like a

guess this is kind of more like an

expectation like you’re talking about

something a little more concrete you’re

kind of

sure okay one more we will not have

saved enough money to buy a house by

next year so this is long and it’s

negative so let’s break this one down

mmm so first let’s look at these two

parts by next year first at the end of

the sentence marks the deadline so when

is this going to happen when is our

deadline so it’s by next year

that’s first that’s our time period we

will not have saved so here I’m using

the negative form of this grammar point

so maybe another way to say this

sentence is by this by next year I don’t

think I am going to have enough money to

buy a house that’s what this sort of

means but it’s more like worse we’re

kind of confident about this at this

future point in time we will not have

saved enough money to buy a house okay

some other questions is it necessary to

use by tomorrow or only tomorrow with

this grammar point generally there’s

some deadline like by future point in

time so typically we see buy used when

you’re using use one we typically use

buy to mark a point in time I want to

continue to the next preposition point

about this though let’s look at the

second use of this second use of this

again I’ve marked this in red is kind of

hard to see it’s an action that will be

continuing in the future that means this

action isn’t continuing now or maybe

maybe it started recently but in the

future at a future point in time

you want to talk about a continuing

action we do that with future perfect

examples in spring of 2022 I will have

been working at this company for ten

years so again this has two parts here’s

my time period my future time period in

spring of 2022 so that’s the time period

I want to talk about then I will have

been working so again with point two

we’re using the progressive form of the

verb after the past participle I will

have been working so using this future

perfect shows I continued working

working working and I’m going to

continue working I will have been

working at this company for 10 years so

again this is another point here we

commonly talk about the total time

period with an expression like for

duration for 10 years for 8 hours

whatever

so again future time period continuing

action how long was the continuing

action or how long is the continuing

action let’s look at another example of

this this is a tricky point I know in

August he will have been living in

France for 3 months so again we have

these same parts to the sentence

in August he will have been living

progressive form here marks this future

expectation something we expect to

continue in the future

how long for three months is the total

time so maybe you can see then to in

this case we’re using in and it’s very

common to use in for these progressive

form patterns yeah okay last one when

she finishes her thesis when she

finishes her thesis she will have been

studying for 18 years okay so this one’s

a little different

there’s no in at the beginning of this

sentence but we still have all the

information when she finishes her thesis

so this is marking like kind of the

endpoint we can do this with this

grammar too we can mark kind of the end

points the expected end point for a

continuing action with when when she

finishes please note this when she

finishes this is in the present tense

when she finishes her thesis she will

have been studying for 18 years so how

long was the total time 18 years so at

this point when she finishes her thesis

she will have been studying so these are

the two uses of future perfect tense

this one’s a little tricky I wanted to

introduce it quickly here I think there

is some videos on the YouTube channel

about this grammar point there are

definitely videos on the channel about

these two so this is the hard the hard

part of the lesson is over so I hope

that it was helpful for you some

questions

Arzu on facebook says how often do you

do natives use future perfect in regular

life again simple it’s hard to say

exactly I would say less often than past

perfect tense but this is a this is

something that we use when we are making

plans

the future this can be at work it could

be like vacation plans it could be

social plans we talk we use it when

we’re making schedules and so on so you

of course it’s still very important to

study this grammar point in the last

example why didn’t you use will I did

use will she will have been studying so

we always use will with the future

perfect tense she will have been

studying for 18 years

okay I don’t see other questions yet

okay long time for thesis yes I said 18

years to mean from like elementary

school to like a master’s degree or

something I think master’s degree is

what I chose okay let’s take one more

break well let’s stick one more break

and then I’ll finish the last points the

last points are easier so you can relax

a bit I’ll show you some things I

haven’t shown you so far today some

other PDFs that you can pick up are

this on the back side are some full

phrases that you can use oh I asked if

of music related phrases music

expressions hard to see so if you want

to check these out I know it’s really

hard to see just click on the link or

above or below the video and you can

just check and download the ones that

you

this is free okay let’s go to the last

part of our lesson today if you’re just

joining us

today’s topic is how to use hub has and

had so I’ve covered perfect tenses now

I’m going to talk about ownership and

responsibilities so this will be

something I think beginners know a bit

about oh he dokie so let’s go to that

and then we’ll finish up send your

questions of course I will try to I will

try to check everything in as much as

possible so let’s take a look

ownership when we want to talk about

something we own like this like I have

this marker I have this paper we use

half to do that depending on the subject

again if your subject is I or you or we

please use half I have heat ha sorry you

have we have if your subject is he she

or it

please use has follow it with your

object examples I have time to talk I

have time to talk

if this subject is he she or it has she

has two pets so this is my object after

the verb is my object

he doesn’t have a job to make your

sentence negative

please use do not or does not I do not

have he does not have to reduce it

doesn’t or don’t if your subject is I so

we use this for ownership in the present

form so this is present form let’s look

at using had here if you want to talk

about the past

something you owned in the past used had

the subject does not matter here I had

he had she had use had for everything I

had a nice lunch or he had a dog when he

was a kid so please use had to express

ownership in the past

final point for today is

responsibilities responsibilities I

think many of you know have to or has to

subject has to something so in this

sentence or in this pattern please use

the infinitive form of the verb

infinitive form is the dictionary form

the type you see when you check the

dictionary so subject has infinitive

verb our sorry has to infinitive verb

for example I have to work if your

subject is I you week I have to work

infinitive form last ones she has to go

to the bank we don’t have to leave yet

to make it negative again do not or does

not please follow the same rules

in terms of the negative form lastly for

past responsibilities again just use had

but add to subject had to infinitive

verb sorry I had to leave early or he

had to run for the train so we’re

talking about responsibilities here had

for the past I have to or has to for the

present I have to finish the live stream

so I will end it there grammar is very

complicated yes I know but it’s exciting

because grammar rules don’t change so

just learn the grammar and then you can

focus on vocabulary yeah okay I have to

finish there so thank you very much for

joining us in this week’s lesson there
