The passive present perfect continuous exists, and is possible, but there are not many contexts in which we would use it. For instance, we would say your sentence (1) instead of the version with the continuous form, because in this context has been used means the same thing as has been being used but is not so clumsy.

However, there are times when the continuous form is useful. These are examples from recent news articles.

Here, the present perfect continuous tells us that the preparation is still going on, while has been prepared would mean that it was finished:

Since October, the ACP [Assault Command Post] has been picking up speed and has been being prepared with the same well planned haste as its intended use. Smaller, Faster, Better .

In this example, the continuous form emphasizes the length of time the expansion has been in the planning stage:

Present Perfect Continuous — rules and examples

In this article, we will study in detail the rules and examples of Present Perfect Continuous. It expresses a long-term action that has just completed or is still ongoing. Let’s also compare Present Perfect Continuous with Present Perfect, Present Continuous and Past Continuous and figure out when to use them.

Present Perfect Continuous time is translated into Russian as «present perfect for a long time.» Don’t be intimidated by such a long name. In fact, it is not so difficult to deal with it, especially if you have already mastered Present Perfect well. Let’s start with the formation of Present Perfect Continuous and then move on to rules and examples.

Present Perfect Continuous Education

Present Perfect Continuous is formed according to the following scheme:

Examples of affirmative sentences in Present Perfect Continuous:

It has been raining all day long. I’m sick and tired of this weather. — It’s raining all day. I got sick of this weather.
Sorry, I’m late. I‘ve been looking for a parking spot. — Sorry I’m late. I AM looking for parking space.

He hasn’t been working all weekend. He is lying. — He did not work all weekend. He’s lying.
Things have not been going really well lately. — Affairs do not go very good recently.

Examples of interrogative sentences in Present Perfect Continuous:

How long Have you been dating him? — How long have you been with him you meet?
you he been watching series all day? — He what, watched TV shows all day?

Using Present Perfect Continuous

Now let’s talk about when Present Perfect Continuous is used.

We use Present Perfect Continuous for an action that began in the past and continues in the present. In such proposals, we focus on the duration of the action. Pay attention to the Present Perfect Continuous marker words: for (throughout, during), since (from some time), all morning / day / week (all morning / all day / all week), lately (recently ), recently.
I have been looking through these articles for two hours but I still can’t find the information I need. — I AM looking through these articles it’s already two o’clockbut still can’t find the information I need.

We have been planning our trip since January… — We are planning our trip From January.
Try it! Julia has been baking this cake all moring.

— Try! Julia scorching this cake all morning.
The next use of Present Perfect Continuous is that the action began in the past, lasted for some time and has just or very recently ended. In this case, we focus on the result of the action, which is associated with the present time. But duration of action is also a prerequisite for using Present Perfect Continuous.
My feet are killing me because I have been walking in these terrible shoes. — My legs hurt terribly because I went in those awful shoes.
I‘ve been waiting for you in the rain! Why are you always late? — I AM waited you in the rain! Why are you constantly late?
Present Perfect Continuous is used to build how long questions. Such sentences are often translated into Russian in the present tense.
How long have you been standing here? You didn’t have to wait for me. — How long are you here you are standing? You might not have waited for me.
How long has she been sleeping? It’s 11 am

already! — How many it is sleeping? It’s already 11 o’clock!
How long have they been dating? Will he propose to her or not? — How many they already meet? Will he propose to her or not?

Present Perfect Continuous and Present Perfect

Let’s talk about the difference between Present Perfect Continuous and Present Perfect. Compare examples and rules in the table below.

Present Perfect Continuous Present Perfect

Emphasis on duration of action. It doesn’t matter if the action is over or not. have been cleaned the kitchen all morning. I am very tired. — I AM cleaned kitchen all morning. I’m very tired. She has been doing homework all evening. — Mary is very diligent. She makes homework all evening.	Emphasis on the result of an action. Action completed I have cleaned the kitchen. It is as good as new now. — I AM removed kitchen. She can go out because she has done her homework. — She can go for a walk, because has done homework.
The action is still ongoing or has just ended. May I ask how long? (how long?) I have been watching the last season of “Game of Thrones” since yesterday. — I AM look the last season of Game of Thrones since yesterday. have been hitchhiking for seven years. — They hitchhiking for seven years now.	Action completed. Can I ask how much questions? (how many?), how many times? (how many times?), how often? (how often?) I have watched the last episode of “Game of Thrones” three times. — I AM looked the last episode of Game of Thrones three times. have never hitchhiked in my life. — I AM never in life did not hitchhike.

There are verbs that are not used in the continuous form (Continuous). Since these verbs describe not the action itself, but the state of the object, they are called stative verbs. There are many examples of such verbs. To make them easier to remember, the following groups can be distinguished:

emotions, feelings: love (to love), hate (to hate), want (to want), (like);
physical perception: see (to see), hear (to hear), seem (to seem);
thought processes: know (to know), believe (to believe), remember (to remember);
possession, possession: have (to have), own (to own), belong (to belong);
others: be, contain, need, etc.

If the action began in the past, but has not yet ended, we usually use Present Perfect with state verbs, and not Present Perfect Continuous.

How long Have you owned this house? — How long have you do you own this house?
I‘ve known him since we were kids. — I AM I know him from childhood.

Some of the above verbs can still be used in Present Perfect Continuous, but their meanings will be different. For example: think (reflect), see (meet, see), mean (intend, want), have as part of the expression (to have a shower — take a shower, to have breakfast — have breakfast). Compare:

She has been thinking about your offer all night long. — She thought about your offer all night.
I have thought, until now, that you were an honest man. Now I see that you are a cheater. — Until this moment I thoughtthat you are an honest person. Now I see that you are a crook.

I have been having strange dreams for about three weeks. — To me dream strange dreams for about three months.
I have had such a problem before. — I have was such a problem before.

We have been seen each other since Christmas. We are in love. — We meet since Christmas. We are in love.
I Have fair seen Derek at the bar. — I have just saw Derek is at the bar.

There are a number of verbs in English that have process-related meanings. They are called durable verbs: live, work, teach, study, feel and others. These verbs can be used both in Present Perfect Continuous and Present Perfect when we talk about actions that began in the past and continue in the present.

Aborigines have been living here for thousands of years. /Aboriginals have lived here for thousands of years. — Aborigines Live in here for thousands of years.
I have been feeling really depressed lately. /I have felt really depressed lately. — I AM feel like very depressed lately.
She has been studying

Present perfect continuous rules, examples, sentences

Present Perfect Continuous formed using an auxiliary verb to be in the form of Present Perfect ( have been, has been ) and the present participle of a semantic verb — present participle (ing-the form)

Interrogative Present Perfect Continuous is formed by setting the first auxiliary verb before the subject, and the rest of the tense form after the subject, and negative — using the particle -not, which is placed after the first auxiliary verb.

Affirmative form	Interrogative form	negative form
+ have / has been + IV	Have / Has been + IV?	have / has not been + IV
I have (= I’ve) have been playing. I’m playing. ( already with )	Have I’ve been playing? Am I playing?	I have not (= I haven’t) have been playing. I do not play.
HeSheIt	Has Been playing= (‘s been playing)	you	hesheit	Been playing?	HeSheIt	has not been playing= (hasn’t been playing)
WeyouThey	have been playing= (‘ve been playing)	Have	weyouthey	Been playing?	WeyouThey	have not been playing= (haven’t been playing)

The meaning and use of Present Perfect Continuous

1) Present Perfect Continuous Tenseused to express a long-term action that began in the past and is still taking place at the present time… In this case, the period during which the action is performed is always indicated.

The duration of the action is indicated by circumstances such as for (during), for a long time, all day, all day long, how long, and the beginning of the action — turns with the preposition since (since, since) — since 1987, since five o’clock.

Examples of using present perfect continuous:

How long have you been doing bodybuilding? — How long have you been doing bodybuilding

I’ve been doing bodybuilding for six years already — I’ve been doing bodybuilding for 6 years

How long have you been living here? — How long have you lived here

We’ve been living here for a year only. — We only live here one year

I’ve been living in England since 1955. — I’ve been living in England since 1955

2) Present Perfect Continuouscan be used without specifying the duration of actionif it is clear from the context that the action began in the past and has continued (or continues) to the present.

Do not payattention to my

I’ve been repairing my car — I am repairing my car

Why are your eyes red? — Why do you have red eyes?

I’ve been cutting onions. — I cut the bow

You are not well to-day. You look distressed. You have been weeping — you are not getting well today. You look miserable. You were crying

3) With verbs that are not used in the Continuous form, in the meaning of Present Perfect Continuous are used Present Perfect forms.

How long have you been here? — How long have you been here?

I’ve been here since 2 o’clock. — I’ve been here since 2 o’clock

I’ve known Tony for two years. “I’ve known Tony for five years.

4) If we are talking about an ordinary, constant action inherent in the subject, i.e. which occurs in general, and not at the moment of speech, then when indicating the duration of the action, along with the Present Perfect Continuous, the Present Perfect is used. The use of Present Perfect Continuous emphasizes the duration of the action, while the Present Perfect emphasizes the fact of the action.:

Has not been living in Moscow for five years = He has lived in Moscow for five years — He has been living in Moscow for (already) five years.

Often there is almost no difference between Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous in this sense.:

I’ve worked for the same company for twelve years. — I worked in the company for 12 years

I’ve been working for the same company for twelve years. — I worked in the company for 12 years

But in the suggestions below, the difference between Present Perfect Tense and Present Perfect Continuous Tense is dramatic: a sentence with Present Perfect shows the completeness of the action; Present Perfect Continuous indicates the duration, incompleteness of the action:

I’ve been watching TV show (= I haven’t finished it). — I’m watching the program (i.e. I’m in the process).

I’ve watched TV show (= I’ve finished it). — I watched the program. (I finished watching her.)

I’ve been learning Spanish all afternoon. — I study Spanish all day.

I’ve learned Spanish (= I know it). — I learned Spanish. (I know him.)

5) The Present Perfect Continuous Tense is also used for expression of an action that lasted for a certain period of time, but ended immediately before the moment of speech and is associated with the present tense by its result… The period of time during which the action was performed may or may not be specified. In these cases, Present Perfect Continuous is translated into Russian by the past tense of the imperfective verb:

Present Perfect Continuous — Present Perfectly long

Such a long name for the temporal form as Present Perfect Continuous Tense (present for a very long time) will undoubtedly scare those who are just starting to learn English grammar. It immediately seems that such a long name hides a very complex structure with many incomprehensible rules. In fact, the opposite is true.

If you are already familiar with the temporary forms Perfect and Continuous, then this time will seem like a mere trifle to you, because you will not find anything particularly new either in the design or in the rules of use. As you can imagine, Present Perfect Continuous Tense consists of a combination of elements of the Perfect and Continuous groups.

So, let’s figure out what Present Perfect Continuous Tense is.

Present Perfect Continuous Tense Meaning

What is Present Perfect Continuous Tense?

Present Perfect Continuous Tense, in translation, the present for a very long time, expresses an action or event that began at some point in the past and continues until the present moment of speech, while it can continue at the time of speech, or it could end directly before the moment of speech.

Present Perfect Continuous Tense is translated into Russian either by the present or by the past tense, depending on whether the action ended before the moment of speech or is still ongoing.

Like all tenses of the Continuous group, Present Perfect Continuous Tense is not used with static verbs (verbs that denote states, not actions). In such situations, Present Perfect Tense replaces it.

Present Perfect Continuous Tense is rarely used in both colloquial speech and writing.

Affirmative sentences in Present Perfect Continuous Tense are formed using the auxiliary verb to be in Present Perfect Tense (have / has been) and the present participle of the semantic verb (verb + ending –ing → Present Participe).

Fake. + have / has been + Present Participe

Interrogative sentences are formed by placing the first auxiliary verb to have in the first place before the subject, the rest of the temporal form remains in its place after the subject.

Have / Has + Authentic + been + Present Participe?

To form negative sentences, the particle not is used, which is placed after the first auxiliary verb to have.

Fake. + have / has + not + been + Present Participe

In colloquial speech, it is customary to use abbreviated forms. For example:

I have → I’ve [aɪv]
he has → he’s [hiz]
has not → hasn’t [ˈhæzənt]
have not → haven’t [ˈhævənt]

Present Perfect Continuous Tense is used:

1. If you want to express a lasting action that started in the past tense and is still going on in the present. As a rule, in this case, it is necessary to indicate the period of time during which the action is performed. This period can be indicated by detailed expressions, prepositional phrases, etc .:

for an hour (a month, a week) — within an hour (month, week)
for a long time — long, for a long time
since 4 o’clock (yesterday, morning) — from 4 o’clock (from yesterday, in the morning)
since he returned — since he returned
lately — recently, recently
these two weeks — these two weeks
all this year (my life, day long) — all this year (all my life, all day)

Example using “for” and “since”

In translation into Russian, verbs of the imperfect form in the present tense are used. Examples:

It has been raining since morning — It has been raining since morning
They have been waiting for the train for half an hour — They have been waiting for the train for half an hour
I have been thinking of you since I first saw you — I think about you since I first saw you

2. In special questions (if we are talking about the period immediately preceding the moment of speech) that begin with the words:

how long — how long, how long
since when — since when

examples:

How long have you been waiting for us? — How long are you waiting for us?
Since when has she been learning Spanish? — Since when has she been studying Spanish?

3. If you want to express a long-term action that began in the past tense and ended just before the moment of speech. Moreover, you want to emphasize the duration of the action and the presence of its result at the moment. The period of time during which the action took place may not be indicated. In translation into Russian, imperfective verbs in the past tense are used. Examples:

Come in! I’ve been looking for you all day — Come in! I’ve been looking for you all day
Why are you all silent? Have you been talking about me again? — Why are you all silent? Are you talking about me again?
Her eyes are red. Has she been crying? — She has red eyes. She cried?

The temporal form of Present Perfect Continuous combines the meanings of a long time (Continuous) and completed (Perfect). It is used to refer to an action that:

started in the past,
lasted for some time (not necessarily continuously),
ended before the moment of speech or is still going on.

That is, it is such an action stretched out in time, which began in the past. I will give examples of life situations that fall under this definition. For convenience, all examples will be in the first person.

I have been living in this house for ten years. — I have lived in this house for ten years.

In this example:

the action began in the past (ten years ago, when I settled in this house),
lasted for some time (ten years), and lasted continuously.
is still going on (I still live in this house).

Let me give you another example. Often the Present Perfect Continuous form is used with the verb to wait.

I have been waiting for you for three hours. “I’ve been waiting for you for three hours.

In this example:

the action started in the past (an hour ago when I started to wait),
continuously lasted for some time (hour),
ended immediately before the moment of speech (now I no longer wait, because I have waited).

Let me give you another example. Here the action does not last continuously.

I have been working here for a week. — I’ve been working here for a week.

It is clear that the “work” action itself did not last continuously for a whole week, day and night, 24 hours a day. It means that the action regularly, on an ongoing basis occurred during this time.

Present Perfect Continuous Education

If you are familiar with other times (otherwise there is no point in studying the times of Perfect Continuosu), the formation of Present Perfect Continuous will be easy to remember. The shape is formed by:

Affirmative form

Single number The many number

1 person	I have been waiting	We have been waiting
2 person	You have been waiting	You have been waiting
3 person	He / She / It has been waiting	They have been waiting

Sample sentences:

I have been waiting for you for a long time. — I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.

To put a verb in the tense form Present Perfect Continuous, auxiliary verb required to be in the Present Perfect tense and the present participle (V-ing form) of the semantic verb.

To be in time Present Perfect has two forms:

have been — 1st and 2nd person units. h. and all forms of pl. h
Has been — 3rd person unit h

Present participle (Participle I) can be obtained by adding the ending to the initial form of a significant verb -ing:

jump — jumping

live — living

В interrogative sentence auxiliary to have is put in place in front of the subject, and the rest of the predicate is located after it:

I smell tobacco. Have you been smoking?
I smell tobacco. Have you smoked?

you she have been using my car again?
Was she using my car again?

В negative sentences behind the auxiliary verb to have followed by a negative particle Note:

It has not been snowing here since 1993.
There has been no snow here since 1993.

Cases of using Present Perfect Continuous:

The action that started in the past has been going on for some time and is still going on at the moment of the conversation:

Present Perfect Continuous: how it is formed and what action expresses, principles and examples of the use of time, description of examples with translation

27.06.2019

We think you have already studied English tenses from the Present group: Present Simple, Present Continuous and Present Perfect. Today we invite you to get acquainted with the latest time from this group — Present Perfect Continuous Tense (Present Perfect Continued Time).

How is Present Perfect Continuous Tense formed?

Let’s analyze the name of this time and try to guess how it was formed. The name contains the word Perfect, which means that we need the auxiliary verb have / has (moreover, the present tense form, since it is Present), there is also the word Continuous, which means that there must be a verb to be and an imperfect participle (ING- new form of the verb). Quite right!

What action does Present Perfect Continuous Tense express?

This time expresses an action that started in the past, continued for some time and continues to this day — either just ended and there is a result.

“I have been learning English for 3 years” — which means I started learning English in the past, studied for three years and still study it — I have been learning English for 3 years.

Consider another example. — The sun is shining, but the earth is somehow wet.

— It was raining.

That is, it started raining in the past, it rained for a while and just stopped, and there is a result: the ground is wet. It has been raining.

Your face is dirty. What have you been doing? — You have a dirty face, what did you do?
He’s so tired. He has been working in the garden. — He’s so tired. He worked in the garden.

The prepositions FOR and SINCE

The time interval during which the action takes place is introduced using the prepositions of time FOR — «during» and SINCE — «from (some time)»

He has been writing his new book for two years already. — He has been writing his new book for 2 years already.
Here you are at last! I have been waiting for you for half an hour! — And here you are at last! I’ve been waiting for you for half an hour.
Granny has been making pancakes since morning. — Grandma bakes pancakes in the morning
My uncle has been writing poems since his childhood. — My uncle has been writing poetry since childhood.

Accordingly, if we are interested in how long the action takes place, we will ask a question using the interrogative word “How long how long«And use Present Perfect Continuous Tense:

How long has Alan been looking for a job? — How long has Alan been looking for a job?
How long has it been raining? — How long has it been raining?

Verbs have, be, know instead of Present Perfect Continuous they are used in Present Perfect Simple: • I have known Tom since our childhood — I have known Tom since childhood • We have been at the seaside for two weeks — We have been on the coast for 2 weeks. • I have had this car for three months already. — I have this car for three months

Present Continuous vs Present Perfect Continuous Tense

In Present Continuous Tense, the action takes place at the moment, now:

Mother is cooking dinner — Mom is cooking dinner (the action takes place now)

In Present Perfect Continuous Tense, the action has already been taking place for some time and at the moment is either still happening or has just ended:

Mother has been cooking dinner for two hours. — Mom prepares lunch for 2 hours (the action took place over 2 hours and is happening at the moment)
Mother is tired, she has been cooking dinner. — Mom is tired, she was preparing dinner. (the action has been going on for some time and has just ended)

Comparison of Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous Tense

Present Perfect Continuous (Progressive)

Did you study English at school? This means that you went through each of the many English times — and did not just go through, but disassemble it in detail, trying to forever remember the order of words in sentences (narrative, negative and interrogative), the peculiarities of their use in English, to comprehend the sometimes elusive differences between them

But when you find yourself in real life situations that require communication in English — did you feel that the years behind the textbooks helped you communicate in the language easily and naturally? Most likely no.

The main problem with most traditional methods of teaching English is that the main focus is on the grammatical aspect (rules, structure, system), and not on the living spoken language.

There are numerous cases when honored teachers who devoted their entire lives to teaching English according to the method of priority of theory over practice were completely lost when they got into the language environment.

In other words, while studying this or that rule, you need to be aware of where and how you can use it — otherwise the rule will be forgotten, and your communication skills will remain the same.

And if you started learning English after graduation, you have a great opportunity to approach this problem without making the mistakes of previous generations, because an ounce of practice equals a pound of theory!

Let’s be familiar: Present Perfect Continuous (Progressive) or present perfect long-term (continued)

What is the mystery hidden in the present tense, describing past events?

This time is considered present (Present), but it is perfect (Perfect), and at the same time long (Continuous or Progressive), which is paradoxical in itself.

Some people compare Present Perfect Continuous with repairs, which, as you know, cannot be completed, but can only be suspended — perhaps this is the most successful intuitive explanation of this temporary category.

And they use it as follows:

1. To indicate an action started in the past and continuing to the present moment (note, such sentences are translated into Russian in the present tense):

Present Perfect Continuous: Everything You Need to Know | English is easy!

The English verb tense Present Perfect Continuous — the present perfect for a long time is used when you need to designate an action that began and lasted for a certain time until a certain moment in the present, past or future.

I have been waiting here for 5 hours! — I waited here for 5 hours!

We have been preparing for our exam since morning. — We have been preparing for the exam since the morning.

Present Perfect Continuous (Progressive) — rarely used in English because:

It has a long shape.
Few cases of use.
Interchangeability. Present Perfect Continius can be easily replaced with Present Perfect without changing the meaning of the statement.

But this does not mean that this time is generally useless. The scope of use of Present Perfect Continuous is really very narrow, but there are cases when it is impossible to replace this time with another. In addition, the correct use of Present Perfect Continius in oral speech sounds very effective.

How Present Perfect Continuous is formed

For Present Perfect Continuous, the rules of education are simple and depend on the form of expression.

Statement

The peculiarity of this tense of English verbs is that it combines two nuances — Perfect and Continuous. The affirmation is constructed using the auxiliary verb «to be» in the Present Perfect — have been (has been). The main verb is the verb + the ending «-ing».

Affirmative sentence in Present Perfect Continuous, examples:

I / We / You / They + have been + verb-ing	He / She / It + has been + verb-ing
I have been playing. — I’m playing.	He has been laughing. — He’s laughing.
You have been reading. — You read.	She has been running. — She is running.
We have been working. — We are working.	It has been working. — It is working.
They have been waiting. — They expect.

Denial

To form a negative sentence, the particle «not» must be placed between «have (has)» and «been».

Negative statement in Present perfect continuius, examples:

I / We / You / They + have been + verb-ing	He / She / It + has been + verb-ing
I have not been playing. — I do not play.	He has not been laughing. — He’s not laughing.
You have not been reading. — You don’t read.	She has not been running. — She doesn’t run.
We have not been working. — We do not work.	It has not been working. — It doesn’t work.
They have not been waiting. — They don’t expect.

Note that abbreviated forms are sometimes used for the verb «have (has)». So in the statement, this verb is combined with a pronoun:

You’ve been laughingp.
She’s been laying.

In a negative statement, «have / has» is combined with «not»:

We haven’t been running.
He hasn’t been waiting.

Question

When constructing a question, «have / has» is put in the first place, and «been» remains with the main verb. It turns out the scheme: have (has) + subject + been + main verb.

Affirmative sentence in Present Perfect Continuous, examples:

I / We / You / They + have been + verb-ing	He / She / It + has been + verb-ing
Have I been playing? — Am I playing?	Has he been laughing? — He’s laughing?
Have you been reading? — You read?	Has she been running? — She is running?
Have we been working? — We are working?	Has it been working? — It is working?
Have they been waiting? — Are they expecting?

In order to quickly remember this time, it is worth studying the cases of its use in speech.

When Using Present Perfect Continuous

The tenses of English verbs in Present Perfect Continuous have two main functions: the Continuous aspect and the Perfect aspect.

Present perfect continuius is used only in 6 cases:

To express an action that started in the past, it lasted for some time and continues at the moment. This function demonstrates long-term action from the Continuous aspect:

The workers have been trying to move our bed for half an hour, go help them. — The workers have been trying to move our bed for half an hour, help them.

Usually, when speaking, an indication of the time of action follows, but without clear time boundaries. That is, it is known when the action began, how long it lasted, but it is not known when it will end.

To indicate the time, you need to use the following words and expressions: lately (recently, recently), recently (recently, the other day), quite a while (quite a long time), all day (all day), as well as prepositions for (in current) and since (starting with).

Since this function indicates duration, then the question in Present Perfect Continuous, most often, begins with the grammatical constructions «how long (how long, how long)» and «since when (since when, from what moment)».

— How long has she been learning Italian language? — How long has she been studying Italian?

— She has been learning Italian for eight years. — She has been studying French for eight years.

Translated into Russian, the verb will be in the present tense, because the action continues in the present.

To express an action that began in the past, lasted for a certain time and ended right before the conversation. This function is from the Perfect aspect. However, in this case, the emphasis is on the fact that the action lasted a certain time in the past:

Do you this cake? I have been baking it since morning. — Do you like this pie? I baked it since the morning.

Here, the validity time may or may not be marked.

We are very tired. We have been walking in the mountains. — We are very tired. We walked in the mountains.

Since it is talking about an action that has already ended, in the Russian translation the verb will be in the past tense.

It is used with basic verb forms such as «work, live, feel, teach», since these lexemes imply that the action lasts for a long period of time and already becomes a stable state.

I’ve worked here for 25 years. = I’ve been working here for 25 years. — I have been working here for 25 years.

To emphasize the temporality of the situation, Present Perfect Continuous is used.

Present Perfect Continuous Tense

In this article, we will talk about Present Perfect Continuous time and look at its use with real life examples.

The time is quite difficult in education, but a little practice, exercise — and you will remember its shape. The Present Perfect Continuous form combines the signs of the Perfect group tenses (the auxiliary verbs have / has + the BE verb in the third form) and the Continuous tenses (the semantic verb with the ending -ING).

Consider the different types of utterances:

Statement

IYouWeThey	Have	Been	Ving:working.sleeping.reading.watching TV.cooking.
HeSheIt	has

Denial

IYouWeThey	have not(haven’t)	Been	Ving:working.sleeping.reading.watching TV.cooking.
HeSheIt	have not(hasn’t)

General and informational questions

(how long)(What)(Where)(when)(Why)	Have	Iyouwethey	Been	Ving:doing? working? sleeping? reading? watching TV? cooking?
you	hesheit

Present Perfect Continuous Tense Values

Present Perfect Continuous combines the meanings of the times of the Perfect (action performed; action that has not yet completed) and Continuous (action in progress) groups.

Present Perfect Continuous has three main meanings. You have probably read books, studied the rules, so I will not just rewrite them once again, but I will explain the use of Present Perfect Continuous time with examples of situations that we face in life.

1 value

An action that began in the past and continues right up to the present. Present Perfect Continuous is used to emphasize the duration, duration of the action.

Situation 1.

You are about to go for a walk, but suddenly it starts raining. You decide to wait for it to end, but an hour, two, three passes, and the rain does not end. You are complaining:

It’s been raining for three hours! — It has been raining for three hours.

The rain started three hours ago and is still not over, the action is in progress, which you can watch from the window.

Situation 2.

You made an appointment to meet with a friend, and he is late. You have been waiting for half an hour, but he is still gone. You lose patience, call him and say:

I’ve been waiting for you for half an hour! — I have been waiting for you for half an hour!

You came half an hour ago, and you are still waiting for your non-punctual friend, the action is still incomplete.

Situation 3.

They bought a new computer game for the teenager and decided to go through it with joy. The game turned out to be so exciting that after a while his parents began to worry:

You have been playing since the morning! — You have been playing since morning!

Their son sat down at the computer in the morning, and still his game is not over, he continues to play.

But we can not always observe the action right at the moment of speech. Sometimes Present Perfect Continuous denotes an action that we associate more with a habit than with a process. In this case, Present Perfect Continuous is often confused with Present Simple. Let’s take a look at the situations.

Situation 4.

Anna celebrates every birthday with her friends. She began to celebrate it with friends when she was a student, and since that time she invites friends every year. What time to use: it seems like a habit, but on the other hand it continues (repeats) for some time.

Ann always celebrates her birthday with her friends. — Anna always celebrates her birthday with friends.

Ann has been celebrating her birthday with her friends since she was a student. — Anna has been celebrating her birthday with friends since she was a student.

Look, we used Present Simple when we were just talking about this habit (or rather, tradition). But as soon as it was necessary to indicate the period of time during which this habit exists, we use Present Perfect Continuous.

Present Perfect Continuous may be mistakenly associated exclusively with an action, the continuation of which we can observe at the time of speech. We use Present Perfect Continuous to emphasize the duration of an action or habit.

Situation 5.

Your friend started learning English five years ago. He has been studying English for five years now and is not going to stop. He can say:

I learn English. I have been learning English for five years. — I study English. I have been studying English for five years.

As you can see from the examples, the translation of the sentences is identical, except that the time period is indicated in the second sentence. Such an insignificant detail, but in English there are two completely different tenses!

2 value

Present Perfect Continuous can mean an action that has been going on for a while, has just ended, and the obvious result of this action is visible. Consider the situations.

Situation 1.

You wake up in the morning and look out the window: the ground is wet, there are puddles everywhere, but the sun is already shining. You understand, of course, that it has been raining recently.

He walked for a while (the action lasted for a while). You have not seen the rain itself, you have only seen the result. You can conclude:

It has been raining. — It’s been raining.

Situation 2.

The student is late for class. The lesson is already beginning, and then he bursts into the audience: his hair is disheveled, he cannot catch his breath. It becomes clear to everyone that he was running:

He has been running. — He was running.

Present Perfect Continuous. Real perfect long lasting

Present Perfect Continuous (present perfect continuous tense) is used in two main meanings, that is, it means:

№ 1

The action that started in the past has been going on for a while and is still going on… This uses the words for (within) or since (since since):

Note that the auxiliary verb has used only in 3 liters. units h (with pronouns he, she, it). How to add to a verb ending -ing, read here.

Denial

Negation is formed with a particle Noteafter the auxiliary verb Have / has:

I have not been working since morning. — I have not been working since the morning.
We have not been working since morning. — We don’t work since morning.
you have not been working since morning. — You have not been working since the morning.

The auxiliary have / has is shortened in negative form as follows:

have not = haven’t (I have not been working = I haven’t been working)

has not = hasn’t (He has not been working = He hasn’t been working)

Questions

For education questions Have / has placed before the subject:

Have I Been working since morning? — Have I been working since morning?
Have we Been working since morning? — We work in the morning?
Have you Been working since morning? — Do you work in the morning? (Do you work since morning?)
Have they Been working since morning? — Do they work in the morning?
you he Been working since morning? — Does he work in the morning?
you she Been working since morning? — She works in the morning?

It is important to remember that there are verbs that are not used in the Continuous tenses. With such verbs, Present Perfect is used instead of Present Perfect Continuous.

The most understandable rules of not quite clear Present Perfect Continuous time

Greetings my beloved readers.

What’s your favorite time in English? I bet you haven’t even thought about the one we’re going to talk about today. A vain, because the Present Perfect Continuous rules are the simplest of all 12 existing ones. Let’s bet that I can convince you of this today. Rules and examples await us both for schoolchildren, for example, grade 8, and for those who are older.

Let’s start?

How is formed

There is nothing complicated in the order of formation of this time. The general principle is simple:

Subject + verb to have (has) + been + predicate with the ending –ing + additions and circumstances.

Let’s see some examples:

I have been helping at the golf competition the whole morning. — I helped at the golf competition all morning. (The action continued and only recently ended)

He has been preparing for the test for the whole evening. It’s time to eat something. “She has been preparing for the test all evening. Time for something to eat. (The action continued but ended)

The most important feature in the formation of Present Perfect Continuous is the use of the auxiliary verb have.

When it comes to the first and second person (I, we, you, you, they), then we put the have form in the sentence.
When it comes to third parties (he, she, it), then have turns into has.

Let’s break it down in detail in the table.

Affirmative form
I have been dancing.	We have been dancing.
You have been dancing.	You have been dancing.
He She It has been dancing.	They have been dancing.

In negative form, the particle not is added to have.

negative form
I have not been dancing.	We have not been dancing.
You have not been dancing.	You have not been dancing.
He She It has not been dancing.	They have not been dancing.

And to form a question, you need to move have to the very beginning of the sentence.

Interrogative form
Have I been dancing?	Have we been dancing?
Have you been dancing?	Have you been dancing?
Has he she it been dancing?	Have they been dancing?

So, remembering the formation of this time is not so difficult. Therefore, let’s move on to when it is applied in practice.

When Used: Beginner Level

For beginners, there are two main uses to remember.

Imagine that the action has already started earlier. It lasted for some time, and by the time of the conversation it was over. This is one situation.

Present Perfect Continuous in English

Continuous tenses in English is a rather difficult task to learn. All of them are almost always tied to voicing the duration and continuity of some action or process.

Specifically, Present Perfect Continuous Tense, or, as it looks in Russian: the present perfect continuous tense is not too difficult in terms of grammatical structure.

But its correct use often causes confusion: it is difficult to determine when it is necessary to say something in this particular time, and not in another.

Rules of formation

The word Perfect in the name of the time immediately terrifies those who have started learning English — again these irregular verbs! And how happy it is to know that the third form of an irregular verb when using Present Perfect Continuous, you need to know only one — been (the verb to be).

When used

The first thing to remember when studying Present Perfect Continuous time — when using it, emphasis is often placed on the duration and continuity of an action. The second important fact is that this process either continues when they talk about it, or just stopped, literally just before the very statement. Here are the situations when the Present Perfect Continuous time will be used in the sentence.

The action began sometime in the past, is periodically performed, and it is not a fact that this will not happen again in the future.

Present perfect continuous — present perfect continuous tense

Studying English, students can deal with the Perfect and Continuous times for a long time in order to learn how to use them automatically.

Therefore, you can imagine their feelings when they come to such a terrible topic as Perfect Continuous.

These are two times at once, and even such not simple ones! However, these fears are completely in vain, and now we will be convinced of this by the example of Present Perfect Continuous time (pronounced as [present perfect continuus]).

This time is used relatively rarely, since it is often replaced by Present Perfect time, but it is still necessary to know it, because in certain situations it will not be possible to do without it.

Moreover, the correct use of sentences in Present Perfect Continuous will only confirm your high level of knowledge of the language, and therefore will attract praise from native speakers.

Let’s take a look at how this time is formed and used.

Present Perfect Continuous: educational rules

Present Perfect Continuous education is similar to Present Perfect and Present Continuous. To form this tense, two verbs are needed: auxiliary and semantic. The auxiliary verb is to be in the Present Perfect form. It has 2 forms of perfect, depending on the person and number:

IYouWeThey	have been
HeSheIt	Has Been

Semantic verbs are formed using Participle I or the present participle. To form it, add the ending –ing to the verb.

Infinitive	V + -ing
(to) blink	blinking
(to) strike	striking
(to)pressure	pressing
(to) blossom	blooming
(to) heal	healing
(to) give	giving
(to) mumble	mumbling
(to) walk	walking
(to)compensate	compensating

Actually, that’s all. By attaching both parts, you get a verb in Present Perfect Continuous Tense:

have been traveling	traveling
have been whispering	whisper
has been wandering	wanders
has been giggling	giggles
have been protesting	protest
has been creating	creates

Present Perfect Continuous: sentence forms

We figured out the formation of verbs, now let’s see how to make sentences with them in various forms.

Affirmative Sentences with Present Perfect Continuous

The affirmative form Present Perfect Continuous, as always, is standard: first, the subject is used, after the predicate, expressed by auxiliary and semantic verbs. Any minor member can complete the sentence. Table for clarity:

Subject	Predicate	Secondary parts of the sentence
Auxiliary	Main verb
She	has been talking	for 2 hours.
She’s been talking for two hours.

Present Perfect Continuous. I have been doing

Present Perfect Continuous — the time that is used to describe an action in the process that has occurred and continues to occur (or has just completed).

Keys to Understanding Time Present Perfect Continuous:

1. The action is in progress (hence the link to the Continuous group).
2. The process began in the past and continues to the present (hence the connection with the Perfect group)

Examples. I have been living in Kiev since 1975. — I (already) live in Kiev since 1975.

I live and continue to live in Kiev, the process has begun and continues!

How long have you been studying Spanish? — How long have you (already) been learning Spanish?

In these examples, the word already is very important, which is invisibly present in the constructions Present Perfect Continuous… Those. the process continues from the past to the present.

Present Perfect Continuous Forms

Affirmative form	Interrogative form	negative form
I / We / You / They have been living	Have I / we / you / they been living?	I / We / You / They have not (haven’t) been living
He / She / It has been living	Has he / she / it been living?	He / She / It has not (hasn’t) been living

Examples.

He has been playing football all day. — He plays football all day.
I’ve been waiting for you for two hours. — I’m waiting for you for two hours.

1. The action began in the past, continues to the present, and may continue in the future

Example I’ve been doing my work for three weeks. — I’ve been doing my job for three weeks.

Those. I did and continue to do.

2. The action ended recently or just recently

Example

I’ve been looking for you a whole hour. — I’ve been looking for you (already) for an hour.
I was looking for you, but now I have found you, so I am no longer looking. The action has just ended.

Difference between Present Perfect Continuous and Present Continuous

Present Perfect Continuous	Present continuous
I have been doing	I am doing
I have been working hard all week. — I’ve been working hard (already) all week. The action began in the past and continues to the present.	I’m working. — I’m working now. There is no connection with the past!

The difference is that Present continuous there is no connection with the past, but Present Perfect Continuous began in the past and continues to the present.

Difference between Present Perfect Continuous and Present Perfect

Present Perfect Continuous	Present Perfect
I have been doing	I have done
I have been reading a book for a month. — I’ve been reading the book (already) for a month. Important process, not the result!	I’ve read a book. — I read the book. Important result — I read!
He’s been writing articles all day. — He writes an article all day. We’ve been playing basketball for three hours. — We’ve been playing basketball for (already) three hours. how long the action takes place.	He’s written three articles today. — Today he wrote three articles. We’ve played basketball two times this week. — We played basketball three times this week. how everything is done or how many times the action takes place.

Present Perfect Continuous shows how long the action takes, and Present Perfect — how many times.

Present Perfect Continuous

Present Perfect Continuous (present perfect long tense) in English, as opposed to Future Perfect Continuous, used much more often. Moreover, I would say that this is one of the most used English times, the essence of which is not so difficult to understand. It is enough to imagine a period of time connecting the past with the present (Present Perfect) and having a current continuation (Continuous).

Present perfect continuous. Examples:

+ We have been reading this book for three months. — We have been reading this book for three months.

? you he been working for you for half a year? — Has he been working for you for six months?

— I have not been swimming since 2012. I have not been swimming since 2012.

Present Perfect Continuous Tense is used:

1. to express a long-term action that began in the past and is still taking place in the present.

For example:

my husband has been cooking in the kitchen for 10 minutes. My husband cooks in the kitchen for 10 minutes.

2. to express a long-term action that began in the past and ended immediately before the moment of speech.

For example:

I feel hungry as I have been walking for several hours. I feel hungry as I have been walking for several hours.

Important!

1. Remember the verbs that are not used in Continuous. For example, in sentences like:

I have this car since spring. — Instead of the NOT USED form «I have been having this car since spring», you should use Present Perfect and say «I have had this car since spring».

A couple more similar examples, in which Present Perfect is used instead of Present Perfect Continuous:

I have been here for 10 minutes. Not I have been being

We have known each other since 2000.

2. When used Present Perfect Continuous the period of time during which the action is performed is always indicated, while certain marker words are used.
