Hello, I Have some confusing patterns on how to differentiate between the use of did and have + past participle?
For example:
1. Have you met Alan?
2. Did you meet Alan?
Can you give me brief explanation about them?
Thank you for your help

Hi Yuana,

Sorry you have had to wait so long for a response. When you ask a question like: Did you see that film? the question usually refers to a particular time in the past and would be: Did you see that film last night? When you ask a question like: Have you seen that film? the question is simply about whether or not you have seen the film and is not concerned about when this was.

Dear Alan,

I have a very busy schedule hence lack free time to pratice improving my low vocabulary which lead to frequent grammatical errors. Thank you for your patience and your forthcoming advice.

Being an indian I am a huge cricket fan. We were on cloud nine when we won the world cup.

Hi Alan, how are you?
Alan, as you know, for sure, Brazil is a country where people like soccer too much. People also loose it here.
We had a tennis player that competed at Wimbledon for several times. His name is Gustavo Kuerten, He was a champion sometimes right there.
For that matter, I would like to say, that sport as a competition is not my favorite bag too, but I walk and run every morning for 1 hour to keep heath and shape.

Thank very much

Sandra - Brazil
