True story. I was about to search a vid about this and voila! I received your notification. It's like you read my mind. 😂😂 thanks a lot 😄😄

The "Quintessential " channel to learn English rules.Efficiency at its "zenith", "Peak". The " epitome " of explanation. Bravo.Nothing to add. Sorry there is one thing I would like to add.A french English teacher asked today in the morning how to translate #je vis à Paris depuis 2 ans# I ve been living in Paris for 2 years was my answer , while he used The PP(I ve lived in paris for 2 years).we have been at loggerheads since... Thanks a lot Sir.تقديراتي .Nouredine Elfounini

Hey. Teacher I am Alfredo and I am from Mozambique 🇲🇿 I am am fond of learning english and I have been following your KZread channel many moons ago and I’ve learned a lot using the tool that you have been providing to us in here almost every single day.

Same here, I really like your vdos and I have learned a lot since I love Grammar : )

I used to find it difficult to clearly distinguish between present perfect tense and present perfect continuous but they have become clearer thanks to your video. By the way, can you continue making other videos like that? it's really helpful.

This is the best explanation about it on KZread. I've researched about that for 3 days and I've not found nothing that made sense until now. There's no videos in Portuguese that can explain that on a comprehensive form. Thank you and congrats.

9:48 Can the verb "live" be considered a part of the list? I assume that the five verbs are interchangable also in other tenses e.g. Future Perfect and Future Perfect Continuous, is that right? Thanks for the video!

Doing TEFL and those tenses were getting me in a spin. Thank you for clear explanantions.

Thank you for the amazing lesson! Would you like please to make a tutorial about the difference between WOULD HAVE , SHOULD HAVE , MUST HAVE ,COULD HAVE ,MAY HAVE , MIGHT HAVE. There are some explanations on this subject, but I got them all confused because their uses are so similar. Thanks

For brazilian students, it's a little difficult to understand present perfect and present continuous, because we dont't have this type of tenses in portuguese. However, this lesson is really perfect and helped me a lot. Thanks, teacher.

Present Perfect vs Present Perfect Continuous with the use of these five verbs (play, study, teach, work and learn) and the adverb "for" in sentences is something that I have struggled A LOT to understand. I had watched this video a while ago and now I've just read Celce-Murci and Larsen-Freeman's The Grammar Book An ESL/EFL Teacher's Course. Their explanation seems to contradict yours. In their book, we have the following explanation: "Present Perfect Versus Present Perfect Progressive The following distinctions may occours: ... b. Strong implication of continuation versus continuation being only a possibility: - I have been teaching for 25 years. (and I can't imagine doing anything else) - I have taught for 25 years (so now it's time to think about doing something else) Notice, in fact with this pair, that the present perfect progressive implies continuation unless it is contradicted by another clause: I have been teaching for 25 years, but now I want to do something else" In your example, you state that the Present Perfect indicates Permanent state whereas in Celce-Murci and Larsen-Freeman's explanation, the Present Perfect alludes to an action that may finish in the present time, becoming a finished action that started in the past and finishes in the present. On the other hand, you state that the Present Perfect Continous alludes to a temporary sitation, but the the authors I brought up explain it alludes that the action defenitly continues in the present and is likely to continue to happen. So what can I deduce from all of this? If I say "I have studied English for 5 years", I indicate that a) The action can continue to happen permanently or b) The action may be about to end or it has ended in a recent past or almost right now If I say "I have been studying English for 5 years" I indicate that a) The action is temporary. I'll finish my English studies eventually or, since I pointed out the whole period of time before the present AND stressed the fact that I'm still studying English to this day: b) The action is ongoing and I will continue to happen with no time to be concluded These is what I got from all my studies and I find it very frustrating because, in my opinion, the possibilities of interpretetion in both Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous are almost contradictory

You are a great committed teacher and your mannerism in connection with teaching is attractive. You seem an Authority in English language teaching.

Hi George. Thanks for checking out the lesson. 👍

The best teacher ever!!!

I have studied English since 1967, but I will never completely master that tenses mess despite your excellent explanation. In German, there are also many tenses but in spoken language we mostly use just two of them: present tense and past perfect. If you want to know when/for how long something happened - just add a temporal adverb!

I have been learning english, thanks to you, appreciate your time and advice!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great video! I really thank you so much! I'd like to ask if the list of the verbs which can be used interchangeably are the following: to teach, to play, to learn, to study, to live, and to play. The list at 9' 49'' differs a bit from the one you show at the end of the video, but I suppose you are referring to the same topic, aren't you? The first list includes "to learn", while the last also contains "to live": I hope I've been clear enough. Another question: I've been working here for 10 years. I think the continuous form here puts emphasis on the fact that the action has been in progress for a long time. Or does this verb tense convey only the idea that it may be a temporary action? (I may find a new job in the future) Thank you once again!

I have studied means you have finished studying , and now further studying is not required . Present perfect - when the action is over I have been studying means , you haven't finished your studies and you further need to study. Present perfect continuous. When the action is still going on. Continuous means when action is happening.It will take to finish.

In this video you told that we can use 6 verbs (Teach, learn live, work, play, study) in Pres Perfect Simple and Pr.Perfect Continuous with the same meaning. Are there any other verbs that we can use either tenses with the same meaning ??? For example: Drive, go, etc. I've been driving the same car since 2019=I've driven the same car since 2019.( is it correct ???) If there are any other verbs could you write with examples please.
