I’m not able to determine whether step 1 completed or not base on my interpretation of the sentence.
Time took / used in the past for a task pretty much remains taken however we phrase it…but it has no indication on task completion status.
Can a native speaker interpret whether it’s now with Framework, or still with Insyde? Or is it undetermined?
I interpret it as ongoing.
From the link:
"## What Is the Present Perfect Tense? (with Examples)
The present perfect tense describes an action that began in the past (despite being a present tense). For example:
Often, the action being described is still continuing into the present (e.g., John continues to take Sarah’s advice). This is how the present perfect tense differs from the simple past tense."
I need to go back to school.
(In the “They have fixed the fence.” example…is the fence fixed?)
This is doing my head in, all over again.
I’m pretty sure “They have fixed the fence” means they’ve, just now, finished fixing the fence (but it took a while)
Hehe, English is [not particularly] fun.
There will be a quiz on this tomorrow morning. Be prepared.
