Español III

¿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.
The present tense of
haber

he hemos

has habéis

ha han
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:
he estudiado hemos
estudiado
has habéis
estudiado estudiado
ha estudiado han
estudiado
Para formar…
As you can see I have combined
the present forms of haber (the
helping verbs)
he hemos

has habéis

ha han
…with the past participle of
estudiar
he estudiado hemos
estudiado
has habéis
estudiado
ha estudiado
han
estudiado
estudiado
Now you try…
On a sheet of paper, see if you
can figure out the present
perfect forms for the verb
hablar:
he ________ hemos
_______
has ________ habéis
________
ha ________ han ________
Is this what you came up with?

he hablado hemos
hablado
has hablado habéis
hablado
ha hablado han hablado
Let’s try another…
Now see if you can form the present
perfect forms of the verb tomar:

__ ________ ____ _______


___ ________ _____ ________

__ ________ ___ ________


Is this what you got?

he tomado hemos
tomado
has tomado habéis
tomado
ha tomado han tomado
Now let’s try an –er verb
See if you can come up with the
present perfect forms for comer:

__ ______ _____ ______


___ ______ ______ ______

__ ______ ___ ______


Is this what you came up with?

he comido hemos
comido
has comido habéis
comido
ha comido han comido
Let’s try another one…see if you can
come up with the present perfect
tense of ir:
__ ___ _____ ___
___ ___ ______ ___

__ ___ ___ ______


Is this what you came up with?

he ido hemos ido


has ido habéis ido

ha ido han ido


Many of you may have assumed that
ir had an irregular past participle.
Afterall, it does have an irregular
present participle. But ir is actually
regular in this tense. Here are some
verbs that are irregular in the past
participle:
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
¡Practicamos!
