hi i was jus wondering if this is considered a past perfect…’When the above- mentioned had been captured and the rest had all disappeared, Mark and his companions we placed in safe custody” – How can i prove that this is a past perfect. I no that three actions took place, one individual was captured in the past, secondly the rest disappeared ..the last action is that mark and his ppl are in safe custody. How do i go about explaining that this sentence is past perfect. plz and thank u

@DeMarkieSade I agree. It must be so hard to learn English as a second language.

great lecture.

DeMarkieSade says:

@lokuazaz The first sentence is in the future perfect tense.
The second, also, is in the future perfect tense.
The third, a question, is future perfect, also.
The fourth, if it were constructed properly, would be a past perfect tense, “The guy would have died if we had not arrived when we did.”
The fourth is past perfect.
The fifth is in the form of a question and is in the future tense.

I thank God that I am from an english speaking ethnicity. As I see how these foreigners struggle with their speech and with everyday sentences that we Americans and English speaking peoples take for granted, that makes me appreciate being from an english speaking background, which is an element of my life that I had never really weighed on the balances of life before now. Good luck people, English is one of the hardest languages to learn, or so I have been told.

The form of this verb is not the challenge for learners, but rather when they should use it and why.

Does the present perfect tense work differently in American English compared to all other ways of speaking English?…..I’m referring to the channel name!

Thank you Berkeley !
