Formation du present perfect
Le present perfect se forme comme le passé composé en français. C'est la seule comparaison que l'on peut faire entre ces deux temps. Le present perfect ne s'utilise pas du tout comme ce temps en français.
have/has + participe passé
I've started
Have you finished
En français, le passé composé alterne les deux auxiliaires (avoir et être). Rien de tout cela en anglais. On utilise toujours "to have" pour former le present perfect.
