¿Qué es el presente perfecto? The present perfect is formed by combining a helping verb (“have” or “has”) with the past participle
Por ejemplo… • For example: • I have played tennis. • She has sung at weddings. • We have flown in a plane.
Para formar in inglés • To form the present participle we combine the helping verb “have/has” with a past participle • For example, “I have been a lifeguard.” • “I” is the subject • “have” is the helping verb • “been” is the past participle
Para formar en español • In Spanish we form the present participle by combining the present tense of the verb haber (the helping verb, or el verbo auxiliar)with a past participle • For example: • Yo he bailado. I have danced. • Nosotros no hemos estudiado para el examen. We haven’t studied for the test.
Remember… How to form the past participle: • For –ar verbs, take the stem of the verb and add –ado Example: comprar → comprado • For –er and –ir verbs, take the stem of the verb and add –ido Example: tener → tenido
Para formar… Here are the present perfect forms of estudiar:

Not exactly irregular but… -er and –ir verbs whose stems end in a vowel have past participles ending in –ído caer → caído creer → creído leer → leído oír → oído reír → reído traer → traído
Irregulars The following verbs have irregular past participles ending in –to: abrir → abierto cubrir → cubierto descubrir → descubierto escribir → escrito morir → muerto poner → puesto romper → roto ver → visto volver → vuelto
More irregulars These verbs have irregular past participles ending in –cho: decir → dicho hacer → hecho
