Past Simple Tense
Structure: Subject + Verb (2nd form) + Object
Past Simple tense ka istemal ham tab karte hain jab hum ek poori tarah se khatam hua action ya event ko bayan karte hain jo kisi specific samay mein past mein hua tha. Yah tense tab istemal hota hai jab action ka waqt diya gaya ho ya ham uske waqt ko imply karte hain, aur iska present se koi connection nahi hota.
Examples:
- I went to the market yesterday.
- Main kal bazaar gaya tha.
- She watched a movie last week.
- Usne pichle hafte ek film dekhi thi.
Key Points:
Specific Time: Past Simple tense ka istemal aksar tab hota hai jab time indicators jese yesterday, last night, last year, in 2010 diye gaye ho.
Example:
- They arrived in 2005.
- Ve 2005 mein aaye the.
Finished Actions: Is tense mein action puri tarah se khatam ho gaya hai aur iska present se koi connection nahi hai.
Example:
- I finished my homework.
- Maine apna homework khatam kiya.
Common Usage Words:
Yesterday (Kal)
Last week/month/year (Pichle hafte/mahine/saal)
In [year] (Jaise, 2010 mein)
Example Sentences:
- We visited the Taj Mahal in 2018.
- Humne 2018 mein Taj Mahal dekha tha.
- She didn’t attend the meeting last Monday.
- Usne pichle somwaar ko meeting mein shamil nahi hui thi.
2. Present Perfect Tense
Structure: Subject + has/have + Verb (3rd form) + Object
Present Perfect tense ka istemal tab hota hai jab koi action past mein kisi unspecified time par hua ho, magar ab tak uska kuch connection ya relevance present se hai.
Examples:
- I have eaten breakfast.
- Maine nashta kar liya hai.
- They have visited Jaipur.
- Unhone Jaipur dekha hai.
Key Points:
Unspecified Time: Past Simple ke opposite, Present Perfect mein exact time ka zaroori hona nahi hota.
Example:
- She has read the book.
- Usne kitaab padhi hai.
Relevance to Present: Yeh action ka kuch effect ya connection abhi ke waqt mein hai.
Example:
- I have lost my keys (so I can’t open the door now).
- Meri chabiyaan kho gayi hain (toh main darwaaza nahi khol sakta).
Ongoing or Repeated Actions: Present Perfect ka istemal tab hota hai jab koi cheez kai baar hui ho ya ab tak ho rahi ho.
Example:
- I have visited that museum three times.
- Main us museum mein teen baar ja chuka hoon.
Common Usage Words:
Just (Abhi abhi)
Already (Pehle se)
Yet (Ab tak)
Ever/Never (Kabhi/Nahi)
Since (Se) / For (Kitne samay tak)
Example Sentences:
- I have just finished my work.
- Maine abhi abhi apna kaam khatam kiya hai.
- They haven’t traveled abroad yet.
- Unhone ab tak videsh yatra nahi ki hai.
