In Spanish, as in English, the present perfect tense (el pretérito perfecto) expresses what has happened. It generally refers to recently completed actions or to a past that still bears relevance in the present. Mi jefe ha decidido que a partir de esta semana hay que comunicarse por Internet y no gastar en llamadas internacionales. My boss has decided that as of this week we have to communicate through the Internet rather than spend money on international calls. Juan ha terminado la carrera de ingeniería, pero aún no ha decidido qué va a hacer a partir de ahora. Juan has graduated as an engineer, but he still hasn’t decided what to do from now on.

The present perfect is formed with the present tense of the verb haber and a past participle. Regular past participles are formed by adding –ado to the stem of –ar verbs and –ido to the stem of –er and –ir verbs. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

Note that past participles do not change form in the present perfect tense. Todavía no hemos comprado la computadora nueva. We still haven’t bought the new computer. La bióloga aún no ha terminado su trabajo de investigación. The biologist hasn’t finished her research work yet. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

To express that something has just happened, acabar de + [infinitive], not the present perfect, is used. Acabar is a regular –ar verb. Acabo de recibir un mensaje de texto. ¡Acabamos de ver un ovni! I’ve just received a text message. We just saw a UFO! Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

When the stem of an –er or –ir verb ends in a, e, or o, the past participle requires a written accent (ído) to maintain the correct stress. No accent mark is needed for stems ending in u. ca-er  caído le-er  leído o-ír  oído constru-ir  construido Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

Several verbs have irregular past participles. Perdón, es que he escrito cuatro mensajes por correo electrónico y no me han resuelto el problema. Excuse me, but I have written four e-mails and you still haven’t solved my problem. El ingeniero me asegura que ya ha visto sus mensajes y dice que muy pronto lo llamará. The engineer assures me that he has seen your e-mails and says he will call you soon. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

In the present perfect, pronouns and the word no always precede the verb haber, which cannot be separated from the past participle by any other word. ¿Por qué no has patentado todavía tu invento? Why haven’t you patented your invention yet? ¡Todavía no lo he terminado de perfeccionar! I haven’t finished perfecting it yet! Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

Note that, when a past participle is used as an adjective, it must agree in number and gender with the noun it modifies. Past participles are often used as adjectives with estar or other verbs to describe physical or emotional states. Las fórmulas matemáticas ya están preparadas. Los laboratorios están cerrados hasta el lunes. The mathematical equations are already prepared. The laboratories are closed until Monday. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.
