I have seen this film ten times. Has he been to Tokyo? It has rained. Have they ever been to Australia? |

Thank you.
Here are some new:
I haven't drunk coffee yet. Does he have written a letter to his boss? Have you seen Avengers? Mary has had a baby. He has never eaten a lobster. Where has she been? Have you done your homework? |

Hello Beeesneees, I've just written some sentences.
He has had an accident. Have you been to Toronto? Have you ever been to Hungary? They have eaten hamburgers. Have you got sunburn? Where have you been? |

It was a really good night. I have met my best friend and his Belgian colleagues. Finally I could speak a little in English. It was really exciting. Especially for me because I haven't met foreign people for a long time.
That is what I want to say now. Have a nice day.
(You know if you have time please, correct my mistakes.) |

The action takes place wholly at a certain time in the past (last night). It would be incorrect to use a different tense. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

I haven't seen you in 10 ages. I haven't seen you for 10 ages.
Is there any difference between them? |
