I've been dealing...

[GUEST2008]

Hi

If someone says "I've been dealing with translating for the last year" does it mean that someone is still doing this? If he says "for the last year" it sounds to me that it was last year and now it's over.

'have been dealing with' is the clue.

'have been dealing with' is the clue.

I see. "For the last" confused me.

So, he would have to say: I was dealing with translating for the last year, and then it would mean that he's done with it.


take care

For the past year ...

For the past year ...

or just "I was dealing with translating last year"

thanks
