what is difference between these two sentenses? #2 (permalink) Fri Jun 05, 2009 7:42 am   what is difference between these two sentenses?
 

He did a lot of hard work.

He has done a lot of hard work.

Arya, both sentences have the same meaning, although the second sentence gives the impression that he has just completed the work.

The first suggests that he did a lot of hard work some time ago.

Kitos.

Hi Arya, Please note the correct spelling of the word 'sentence'. In your message title you wrote 'sentenses'. Also, you need to put a full stop (period) at the end of each sentence.

Thanks,
Torsten
