• How do we make it? has/have + past participle (the third form of the verb).
• Example: I have eaten my lunch. (It happened sometime before now, but we don't say when).

2. Past Perfect Tense

• What is it? We use this tense to talk about something that happened before another action in the past. It's the "past of the past."
