I've seen her. Yesterday, as a matter of fact. :wink:


'It was' has been omitted.

 

[Tdol]

You've changed the punctuation.:lol:

Is that the existential past perfect? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

 

[Tdol]

Only in a diontapedal sense. :lol:

 

[s_e_guner]

Indeed, if you use "present perfect", you simply mean that the effect of the verb is still going on. But "simple past" signifies an accomplished event, does not it?

Welcome!

Yes, that's true, but the present perfect doesn't necessarily mean, 'still on going'. It's more like the event continues up until now, the present moment, then ends or continues on. Consider,

EX: He died. (He is dead)
EX: He has died. (He is dead)

All the best,

[banderas]

That wasn't too tricky, was it?

 

[Omar!]

The correct answer should be,

This is very easy poll .. Mr.Tdol

the answer is (I saw her yesterday. )

because only in the simple past we show the time like ( yesterday , today , at 5 ...etc ).

 

[franck]

i saw her yesterday

if you use i have seen, you mean you saw it in the past and you're still able to see it at the moment.
if it was yesterday it's finished

 

[verbavolant]

it is very easy
Answer is I have not seen her yesterday
