PERFECT TENSE

My teacher ever asked me something like this, "Change into English, 'Dia (laki-laki) telah datang kemari'." Bingung banget, soalnya waktu itu baru-barunya ngambil english course and langsung loncat ke intermediate and i didn't take the basic because my mother said the basic was just easy. haha. Balik lagi nih guys, aku malah nanya lagi ke guru ku itu, "sir, what tense?" terus dia jawab, "ow, Indonesian doesn't have tense like English, there is no tense." inget banget deh kata-katanya. wow~ dan karena diriku nggak bisa jawab *how pity* finally, my teacher told me that it was PRESENT PERFECT TENSE. Dan bahasa inggrisnya 'Dia (laki-laki) telah datang kemari' is......... He has come here *clap clap clap your hands* Pendek banget kan? Sekarang aku bakal sharing to all the cute and handsome readers in my blog about PERFECT TENSE.




There are 6 kinds of PERFECT TENSE:

1. PRESENT PERFECT
2. PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS
3. PAST PERFECT
4. PAST PERFECT CONTINUOUS
5. FUTURE TENSE
6. FUTURE PERFECT CONTINUOUS

I. PRESENT PERFECT

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express an action beginning in the past, but the action still related in the mind of speaker with the moment of speaking. (kira-kira artinya: tense ini digunakan untuk menerangkan atau menceritakan kejadian yang terjadi pada waktu lampau, tetapi masih berkaitan pada pikiran si pembicara)

Nah, biar gampangnya lagi, biasanya aku lebih make (menggunakan) tense ini untuk suatu hal yang baru aja terjadi.

The Pattern:

II. PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express the action beginning in the past and still continuing up to the moment of speaking. (tense ini dipakai untuk menerangkan kegiatan pada waktu lampau dan masih berlanjut hingga saat diucapkan)

The Pattern:

III. PAST PERFECT

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express something had already happened before this time. ( tense ini digunakan untuk menerangkan sesuatu yang telah terjadi pada waktu tertentu)

The Pattern:

IV. PAST PERFECT CONTINUOUS 

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express the action began before the time of speaking in the past and continued up to the time, or stpped just before it. (digunakan untuk menerangkan kegiatan pada waktu lampau sebelum kegiatan lain terjadi dan masih berlanjut atau berhenti sebelum kejadian itu)

The Pattern:

V. FUTURE PERFECT

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express activities or condition that occur and are completed before another activity or point of time in the future. ( digunakan untuk menyatakan kegiatan atau kondisi yang berlangsung dan telah diselesaikan sebelum kegiatan lain terjadi di masa mendatang)

The Pattern:

VI. FUTURE PERFECT CONTINUOUS

>>>Definition: This tense is used to express activities or condition that existed and it will be going on in the future. (digunakan untuk menyatakan kegiatan atau kondisi yang sudah ada dan akan terjadi dimasa mendatang)

The Pattern:

I will give you several examples:

1. I have done my homework (present perfect)
2. Has he been teaching English? (present perfect continuous)
3. They had not been far away. (past perfect)
4. Rizky had been watching TV (past perfect continuous)
5. Will Diana have been on time? (future perfect)
6. We shall not have been shopping in Bali (future perfect continuous)
