Present Perfect vs. Present Perfect Continuous in Russian and English

In Russian, the Present Perfect tense is used to express actions that have been completed recently or have relevance to the present, while the Present Perfect Continuous tense is used to emphasize the duration of an action that started in the past and continues into the present.

1. Present Perfect (Russian: Настоящее совершенное время): - The Present Perfect tense in Russian is used to express actions that have been completed recently or have relevance to the present. For example, "Я перевожу статью об английском климате" translates to "I have translated an article about the English climate".

2. Present Perfect Continuous (Russian: Настоящее совершенное длительное время): - The Present Perfect Continuous tense in Russian is used to emphasize the duration of an action that started in the past and continues into the present. For example, "Я не перевела ни строчки с тех пор, как вы пришли" translates to "I have not translated a single line since you came".

In English, the usage of Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous is similar to Russian, but with some differences in nuance and emphasis.

Examples of Present Perfect and Present Perfect Continuous in English:

1. Present Perfect: - "I have translated an article about the English climate." - "How many articles have you translated this year?" - "I have warned you about your arrival. I have been waiting for you since yesterday."

2. Present Perfect Continuous: - "I have been translating an article." - "You have been whistling for half an hour." - "They have been building this school for a year."

In both Russian and English, the Present Perfect Continuous tense is used to emphasize the duration of an action that started in the past and continues into the present, while the Present Perfect tense is used to express completed actions with relevance to the present.
