Hi
What’s the difference between these sentences?
1)Simon will leave when Alan has arrived.
2)Simon will leave when Alan arrived.
The first is correct; the second isn't.
Context is always important; labelling is rarely important.
Hi
How about changing to “Simon will leave when Alan arrives”
Is this sentence correct?
Hi
Thank you for your reply.
What’s the difference between 1 and 2 and 3 and 4?
Any change in meanings?
1)Simon will leave when Alan has arrived.
2)Simon will leave when Alan arrives.
3)Simon left when Alan had arrived.
4)Simon left when Alan arrived.
In #1 and #3, Simon's departure may happen after Alan's arrival. #2 and #4 suggest that the two events happen at the same time.
Context is always important; labelling is rarely important.
