but with yesterday we use the simple past tense.

for example we can say I saw King of Darkness yesterday.
or
I have seen King of Drakness.

I think you're right...... now a see, so the correct answer would be

I saw him yesterday.

because of the specific time

thank you

Hi, Anita

I got my hair cut (it means someone else do it for you)

I hope it can help.

saw is correct because action is not going on. And we use yesterday in past simple tense.

The past simple is definitely the correct tense in the above situation. But why isn't present perfect right?
