| Re: using since in past perfect tense I think you probably need to say: Since I received your letter, I haven't been able to turn on my computer. or Since receiving your letter, I haven't been able to turn on my computer. I've changed "open" to "turn on" because we don't say "open a computer" in English. You can "open a file", or "open your email", but not the computer itself (unless you need to look inside it). |
