Für das Present Perfect existiert im Deutschen keine Entsprechung. Es handelt sich um die Verlaufsform des Perfekt/der vollendete Gegenwart und drückt Handlungen in der Vergangenheit aus, die vor kurzem stattfanden und (noch) Einfluss auf die Gegenwart haben. Dabei ist der Ablauf bzw. die Dauer der Handlung zentral.
Present Perfect Progressive
Bildung :
I / You / We /They ⇒ have been playing. (I’ve been playing.)
Subjekt + “have/has” + “been” + Infinitiv + „-ing “
he /she /it ⇒ has been playing. (he’s been playing.)
Du bildest das Present Perfect Progressive mit “have“/“has“ und “been“ und der “-ing”-Form des Vollverbs.
⇒ I have been waiting since 8 o‘clock.
Bei Fragen vertauschst du „have“/“has“ mit dem Subjekt.
⇒How long has Tom been waiting?
Bei Verneinungen stellst du „not“ hinter “have”/“has“.
⇒We have not been waiting.
Verneinung :
I / You / We /They ⇒ have not been playing. (haven’t been playing.)
Subjekt + “have/has” + “not” + “been” + Infinitiv + „-ing “
he /she /it ⇒ has not been playing. (hasn’t been playing.)
Frage:
Have + I / You / We /They ⇒ been playing ?
“Have/Has” + Subjekt + “been” + Infinitiv + „-ing “
Has + he /she /it⇒ been playing ?
