Simple Past / Present Perfect t's really confusing to choose the correct tense between simple past and present perfect. Let's assume one situation. every student has to bring his/her own name tag to the class. but today i forgot to bring it. if a professor notices that i'm not with the name tag now, she would ask me 'don't you have your name tag?' then i would say 'yes i have the name tag but i forgot to bring it', right? but is it okay for me to say 'yes i have the name tag but i didn't bring it' or 'yes i have the name tag but i haven't brought it' which one is correct between 'i didn't bring it' and 'i haven't brought it' so confusing to pick up the right tense.
