The Perfect Tenses
PERFECT means "complete, finished".
The perfect tense is a form of a verb
that shows the action is complete. It does not mean the action is
"perfect" (100%). It means the action is finished.
- Past Perfect is a form of
the verb that shows the action was complete before some time in the
past.
For example: Lisa had danced before she came.
- Present Perfect is a form of
the verb that shows the action was complete before the present.
For example: Lisa has already danced.
This is a common English tense.
- Future Perfect is a form of
the verb that shows the action will be complete before some time in the
future.
For example: Lisa will have danced tomorrow by
9 o'clock.
