Present perfect simple

      The present perfect simple is : have/has + past participle.

The past participle often ends in -ed ( finished / decided ..), but many important verbs are irregular (lost/done/been..)

   When we use the present perfect there is always a connection with now . The action in the past has a result now :

    ' Where's you key ? '  ' I don't know . I've lost it '  ( I haven't got it now. )

    He told me his name but I've forgotten it .( I can't remember it now. )

   We often use the present perfect simple to give new information or to announce a recent happening :

    Ow! I've cut my finger.

  The road is closed. There has been an accident .
