Perfect Tenses

Present Perfect: have-has

Something has done in the past, has a present result and can continue in the
future.

Past Perfect: had

Something had happened in the past.
 Diferencia entre Present Perfect y Past Perfect
El past perfect es muy similar al present perfect debido a que el evento
también se inició en el pasado. Sin embargo, la diferencia entre los eventos
es que el suceso del past perfect también terminó en el pasado. Esto se
puede utilizar con un tiempo especificado.

Letter to a Friend
Hi, Fred!
It has been a while since we have been in touch. How has your semester been?
I wanted to send an email update to you let you know how things have been going
during my semester abroad here in Málaga, Spain. I have already been here for six
weeks, and I feel like I am finally adapting to the culture. I'm also speaking the
language more fluently.
I arrived during the first week of September. The weather has been very nice. Even
though it's October, it's still rather sunny and warm. In fact, I went to the beach
and swam in the Mediterranean Sea earlier today.
I am living with a very welcoming host family. I have my own private bedroom, but
we eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner together. On Sundays, we eat a big home-
cooked paella for lunch. In Spain, lunch is usually the biggest meal of the day. It's
also very common for the people to take a midday nap right after a big meal. I am
actually just waking up from my nap right now!
On weekdays, I take classes at the local university. There, I met several native
Spanish speakers. They have been very kind and patient with me. At first, I
struggled to comprehend their Spanish, but now I understand most of our
conversations. They have commented that my Spanish has improved a lot since
we first met. Now, I am more confident to use the language in other places like
stores and restaurants.
I am so glad that I decided to spend the semester here in Spain. We have an
extended weekend coming up, so a group of my friends and I are going to travel
to France for four days. It's so easy and inexpensive to travel internationally in
Europe. I love it!
I look forward to hearing from you soon. Like I said, don't hesitate to stay in touch
more often. Perhaps you could even come to visit! What do you think?
Best wishes,
Patrick
