在英式英语总中,现在完成时态强调的是过去发生的某一个行为对现在产生的影响。例如:I have finished my homework, shall we play football? 或者I have missed the train, can I get a refund for the ticket?而没事英语则不会这样表达,他们多半会说:I finished my homework, shall we play football?或者I missed the train, can I get a refund for the ticket? 另外,英式英语的现在完成时和美式英语的一般过去时都常用already,just 和yet。
