    Hi,

    Present perfect and present perfect progressive are both used to talk about a point in time from the past and bring it to the present. Present perfect is used with 'have + past/past participle'.  However, the progressive uses the 'ing' form of the verb to show it's continuation. Examples are the best way to remember, and at work I use a timeline. :)

                             You arrived at bus stop                                             (Now) Bus arrives

                                              8:00                                                                      8:15

    <----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->


    Present Perfect: I have waited for the bus each day this week. I have eaten two meals, so far today.

    Present Perfect Progressive (see timeline): I have been waiting for the bus since 8:00.

    I hope this helps a little. :)

    I want to learn English

    I really want to learn how to speak English fluently. fluently speak in English, I have a lot of English sentences in my head, but I don't have the confidence to speak. it out, What am I gonna (going to) do?

    We use 'gonna' all the time so it's good. I just gave you the more proper way. :)

    You're English is a lot better than my Tagalog. I'm still learning basics. Maganda ang mataas na puno. (haha)

    Hi Mary! Both these phrases have the same meaning. In the US we say 'on the weekend'. However, I work with people from England and New Zealand and they use 'at the weekend'. As I tell my students, use the form of English that you're comfortable with if you have a choice between American English and English. :) I hope this helps!

    Hi, 'Blistering' is used to emphasize the cold. To make a temperature seem more extreme. I've heard 'blistering heat' more often, being from Florida. :) It's as to say, the cold/heat is so extreme that blisters or sores can form on the skin. I hope this helps.

    Would you like to correct this for me, please?

    What is the difference between a shoplifter and people who download illegal things on internet?
    On the one hand, in my opinion, perhaps a shoplifter could be stealing due to the difficulty to make ends meet or maybe he/she has to feed their children. Probably a shoplifter has many reasons to steal. On the other hand, I think people download some illegal things or products on the internet, like movies, songs and so on for their personal enjoyment, regardless of the creativity of the author, disregarding the creation of jobs joined to those illegal things like producers, actors/actresses, designers...
