  2. The Present Perfect • In English we form the present perfect tense by combining have or has with the past participle of a verb: he has seen, have you tried?, they haven’t eaten.

  3. The Present Perfect • To form the past participle of a verb in Spanish, you add -ado to the stem of -ar verbs and -ido to the stem of most -er/-ir verbs.

  4. The Present Perfect • To form the present-perfect tense, we combine this past participle with the present tense of the verb haber.
