Zorluk: KolayVerbs, Tenses, and Aspect

Complete the sentence below by filling in the blank with the most appropriate verb form.

Cevap:Mr. Danjuma 【has lived】 in Enugu since 2018, so he knows the city very well.

Cevap

has lived (or has been living)
The present perfect form ('has lived') or present perfect continuous form ('has been living') is required because the time preposition 'since' specifies an action that began in 2018 and continues to the present moment.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the time expression in the sentence.
The phrase 'since 2018' indicates an action or state that started at a specific point in the past and continues into the present.
Time expressions introduced by 'since' require a verb in the present perfect or present perfect continuous aspect.
2
Select the verb form that matches the temporal requirements.
The forms 'has lived' (present perfect) or 'has been living' (present perfect continuous) correctly express duration leading up to the present.
The singular subject 'Mr. Danjuma' requires the auxiliary verb 'has' paired with the past participle 'lived' or present participle 'living'.
