What is formed by using have with the past participle of verb?

When you use "have" with the past participle of a verb, you form the present perfect tense.

Here's a breakdown:

* Have/Has + Past Participle = Present Perfect Tense

Example:

* I have eaten breakfast. (Present Perfect Tense)

Here's how it works:

* Have/Has: The helping verb indicates that the action happened in the past but has a connection to the present.

* Past Participle: This form of the verb indicates the action has been completed.

The present perfect tense is used to talk about:

* Actions that started in the past and continue to the present. (e.g., I have lived here for five years.)

* Actions that happened at an unspecified time in the past. (e.g., I have seen that movie.)

* Actions that have just finished. (e.g., I have just finished my homework.)
