Comment faire un bilan au présent d'expériences
passées ?
Guess what ! I'm taking a trip to Hawaii with CJ next month.
Really ? That's so cool ! I've never been there ? Have you Mai ?
Mai : Yeah, I went once with my parents but I've never been by myself. I've always
wanted to go back.
Mai, did you go to Honolulu when you went with your parents ?
Mai : No, I went to Maui. I've never been to Honolulu but I've heard it's great.
Kumiko, have you ever been out of the country ?
Kumiko : No but I've traveled a lot within Japan.
Now, that's something I haven't done yet.
This document is a dialogue between three characters, three japanese teenage girls
who are friends. They are talking about travels. Their names are Kim, Mai and Kumiko.
Kim is going to Hawaii the following month with CJ and she asks her friends if they
have already been there.
On the one hand, Mai has already been to Hawaii but she only went to Maui, she has
never visited Honolulu.
On the other hand, Kumiko has never left Japan but she has traveled a lot within the
country.
Pour faire un bilan au présent d'expériences passées ou pour parler d'un événement
passé ayant des conséquences visibles dans le présent, on utilise le PRESENT
PERFECT son auxiliaire est HAVE, il apparaît à TOUTES LES FORMES. Il est suivi du
verbe au PARTICIPE PASSÉ. LE PRESENT PERFECT est un temps du
PRÉSENT.
