Perfect Tense

Present Perfect Tense is used for describing a past action’s effect on the present: He has arrived. Now he is here. This holds true for events that have just been secluded as well as for events that have not yet occurred.

Present perfect is formed by combining have/has with the main verb’s past participle form:
I have arrived. A negation is produced by inserting not after have/has:
I have not arrived.Questions in present perfect are formulated by starting a sentence with have/has:
Has she arrived?
