Разница между The Past Simple и The Present Perfect
1. Говорим или не говорим, когда что-то произошло.
В Present Perfect важен факт совершения действия и не имеет значения, когда именно оно произошло. В Past Simple обычно указывается, когда именно произошло действие.
Слова-маркеры в Past Simple: yesterday (вчера), in 2015 (в 2015), ago (тому назад), when I was younger (когда я был моложе) и другие.
I have ridden a horse! – Я ездил верхом! (неважно, когда это было)
I rode a horse yesterday morning! – Вчера утром я ездил верхом! (конкретный момент в прошлом)
2. Законченный период времени или текущий.
Если мы говорим о периоде времени, который все еще продолжается, употребляем Present Perfect. Часто на текущий период указывают такие слова-маркеры, как today (сегодня), this week (на этой неделе), this month (в этом месяце) и this year (в этом году).
Если период закончен, используем Past Simple. На него указывают следующие слова-маркеры: last week (на прошлой неделе), last month (в прошлом месяце), last year (в прошлом году).
I haven’t seen you in the office this week. – Я не видел тебя в офисе на этой неделе. (неделя не закончилась)
I didn’t see Sofie at work last week. – Я не видел Софи на работе на прошлой неделе. (прошлая неделя закончилась)
3. Связь с настоящим и факт из прошлого.
У Present Perfect всегда есть какая-то привязка к настоящему, тогда как при помощи Past Simple можно просто изложить факты о прошлом.
We’re so happy! We have learnt English! – Мы так счастливы! Мы выучили английский! (мы счастливы сейчас – привязка к настоящему)
Ivan learned English at school. – Иван учил английский в школе. (факт из прошлого)
