during the last week? I'm not sure whether I put it in the correct tenese. Suppose I wrote:
My friend "Why didn't you come to the party?"
My answer "During the last week I've been pretty bussy."
"During the last week" means up to this moment and it is this week. Am I right?
"During the last week I've read five books." Ok?

Re: during the last week? I'd say the guy from Turkey is mistaken? What's the right answer? Originally Posted by ostap77
