    I have to say that I really like your work and it has helped me a great deal. Just a small point though; is it not better to say "My uncle has BEEN to NY five times", meaning that he went to NY and has come back 5 times. "My uncle has GONE to NY five times" suggest that he somehow went to NY five times without coming back.

      1. You lived there once, you no more live there , probably you are living somewhere else now.

      She provides two examples. The one you mention, and shortly after the one I mention. The example of the dead uncle was only given to show past tense, not so for the present perfect example.

      _That's a really interesting observation there and I totally agree with you, For example if you're having a conversation with an American i'm certain that there would most likely choose to say I've been to New York five times rather than saying i've gone to new york 5 times... exept that you added FOR in your correction which is incorrect by the way ... There is also another mistake that I was able to spot on the same example, She said My uncle went to New York 5 times which would be only applied for someone who has already passed away (Died) and that isn't true at all cause you can still talk about the past whether you're dead or alive because we are just talking about something from the past_

    • @janlambert5128
      @janlambert5128 5 лет назад

      Both are correct, Varun - “I have lived in London for 7 years” focusses on the result (7 years); “I have been living in London for 7 years” focusses on the activity of “living”. With this verb (live) there is very little difference. However, with other verbs you need to remember to use the Simple for results, and the Continuous for activity 😊

      I have lived in London for 7 years. (I am still living in London)
      I have been living in London for 7 years.(I am still living in London)
      present perfect focuses on completion while present perfect continuous focuses on continuous activity.
      But here they have the same meaning because of the verb 'live'

The doctor had died before the patient died. The patient died after the doctor had died. 3) The train left. Then we reached the station. We reached the station after the train had left.

      The both sentence are correct.
      let me tell you the distinction between present perfect and present perfect continuous.
      present perfect: you are doing a work that work is finished just now or a few hours, so you want to say that, your work is completed with duration of time, e.g " I have completed the task for 2years (you emphasize the duration ,how long you took)
      present perfect continuous: your work is not completed up to date, so your work progress is unfinished action, e.g " I have been doing this task for 2years".

    Hi thank you for uploading this video, it is truly beneficial. However, I got a little confused with the two examples; the one with the Uncle and London. Like what you mentioned, "My uncle has gone to NY 5 times" means that he is still alive right? So if I talk about my own life and say I lived in London for 7 years, does it mean Im dead? Im sorry but can you explain how to i judge which is correct when encountering anomalies such as this? It would be a great help to me, thanks!!

      1)My uncle has gone to NY 5 times. It means he has not returned from NY. But 5 times, so his four departed souls have gone to NY four times.
      2) I lived in London for 7 years.You are dead. A dead person says 'I lived in London for 7 years.' So you are a ghost.
      So your uncle is walking dead and you are talking dead.
      CORRECTION : My uncle has been to NY 5 times. (He is alive.)
      CORRECTION : I lived in London 7 years.(I am alive and I am not living in London). I live in Manchester,Toronto, etc.

    I think that in the last example, both of the versions are incorrect.
    The best ones would be (at least from grammar's perspective) - I have been living in London for 7 years / I had been living in London for 7 years. The first one is still ongoing, while the second one took place in the past and has finished.

    • @AD-je3pd

      I think: I had been living .... is suitable when you are talking about a specific time in the past during your stay in London. When you are out of London and talking about the past then: I lived ... is correct.. So both the video and your sentence are correct but different from each other.

      Hello! they are both correct because of the use of "I've". Since "I've" is a contraction of "I have", it's stated that you have been and still are living in London.
      However, if you want to say you used to live in london, you would just say "I lived in...". See the difference?
      So, "I'VE lived" = have been and still are living
      "I lived" = used to be living
