3 Present Perfect & Narrative Past
When talking or writing about events that happen in the past, one must use past tense. There are two options in German. Present Perfect & Narrative. Present Perfect: uses a past participle with a helping verb(haben oder sein). Narrative Past: uses a simple form: the main verb in the past tense.

4 Present Perfect The present perfect tense is used in conversational exchange. Formed by combining an auxiliary verb with the main verb. Uses haben or sein to have: hat gehabt to go: ist gegangen to buy: hat gekauft

5 Conjugation of Haben and Sein
Ich habe Du hast Er, Sie, Es hat Wir haben Ihr habt sie Sie Ich bin Du bist Er, Sie, Es ist Wir sind Ihr seid sie Sie

6 When to use Haben Use haben when not indicating motion
Verbs that use accusative. Haben is considered an auxiliary verb. Example: Ich habe gegessen I have eaten

7 More Examples of Haben Er hat gelacht, als wir ihm gratuliert haben.

8 When to use Sein When an action verb is used.
When in motion and moving from a certain place(example: gehen, fliegen). Examples: Ich bin heute gegangen. I have gone today Use sein because you are talking about being in motion.

9 Let’s sum it all together
Er hat gelacht, als wir ihm gratuliert haben. He laughed when we congratulated him Sie ist nach Hause gefahren. She has driven home You should be able to notice the different use of haben and sein. Remember that the “ge” that has been added These indicate the present-perfect tense.

10 Narrative Past (Simple Past)
The Narrative Past is used when narrating a series of events, usually written down. Describes events that have happened in the past but are not yet fully completed. Main verb used in past tense. Only change the finite (conjugated verb).
