Hello all.
How do you feel about "I have written letters all day" in this context?
Talking to myself:
The final between Nadal and Federer is starting at six and I still have a lot of work to do. I am afraid I can´t make it. I have writen letters all day but I am still not finished. It´s endless. I had better give myself a break. Anyway it doesn´t matter whether I finish it at nine or at eight......
I know that there is the preference of using "present perfect continuous" but Iam trying to find out some context where this sentence will fit. My teacher says it is rarely used.
Thank you.
