eclipsedstar · Answer

What's underlined? We can't help if we don't know.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Well here's the thing: past and past perfect are different.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

A simple past version of eat would be ate rather than have eaten.

the underlined thing is had and eaten

anonymous · Answer

im not too sure about this one

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Well it's not past because it's happening right now.

anonymous · Answer

so then i would think its B

anonymous · Answer

or C

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Oh dear. This is quite the issue. I mixed up my knowledge of present perfect with my knowledge of past perfect.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

OOOOOH I got it now. If the verb begins with "had," it's past perfect, and if it begins with "has," it's present perfect.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

So the second one we did is actually present perfect.

anonymous · Answer

oh

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Lol. Sorry about that. Is it too late to change the answer?

anonymous · Answer

no i can change it

kyanthedoodle · Answer

Okay good.

kyanthedoodle · Answer

So you know what this one is, right?
