I have seen many videos to learn English like this, but I have never seen someone who explains so beautifully like you..❤ thank you so madam. Im form India

[ablazeyhwh]

"I have worked here for two years", the present perfect it means "maybe I still work here", it is "I have been working here for two years", present perfect continuous, that means 100% I still work here.

[Islam-qks]

You are indicating everything in a simple way. You are so great teacher, really

[ASK-fwsm]

Thank you for telling this. I am from India.

[TuychiGayirov]

Super thank you so much for teaching me

[shelvinlal]

Thanks, I needed to know this difference.

[lolishal]

❤❤❤
Thanks a million.
I know this rule, but I felt more confident when you explained it.

[Yusufaljboury]

The two tenses are used to talk about something that happened in the past. But there is a different between both tenses 🎉

[Andy_V.]

more suitable: I've been working here for 2 years

[johnlawrence]

Dziękuję 🇵🇱 Agnieszko. Jestem Anglikiem i mówię po włosku. Mai non mi sono accorto questa differenza!

[universe]

And isnt "I've been working here" the same? What's the difference? I'm confused now😅

[s.a.b]

I think the present perfect : I have worked here for 2 years.
means; Also the past, but the effect of this job still affects me eversince.
If Iam wrong, pls. Correct me.
And I think the tense is perfect continuos tense as
I have been working here for 2 years.

[أوراقمتصاعدةملكةثقة]

Can use i have been work instead thank you so much

[orgkeke]

I have been working here for two years... Present Perfect Continuous Tense

[QURAN_]

I have been learing english for 2 years
I have learned english for 2 years

Are these sentence correct?
And what is the different

[gokhanakay]

" i ve been working here for 2 years " i d rather say this way, it's my usual. " i ve worked here 2 years' i understand as already 2 years ' done' and still im working, same. But i d more likely to use present perfect cont. I dont know if it would make alteration in meaning.

[paaabl.]

How about "I sent it" vs "I have sent it"?

[oualilamriben]

Oh great thank you I'm confused by this already 😂

[technotricks]

I have worked here for 2 years or I have been working here for 2 years... What's the difference? Both shows something started in past and still going on..

[sudipghosh]

I have been working here for two years
