We form the present perfect continuous with the present perfect simple of be + the -ing form of the main verb.
Present perfect continuous – use
Summary chart
Actions from the past till now – duration
We use the present perfect continuous with action verbs (dynamic verbs) to talk about situations that started in the past and have not finished or have just finished.
-
Have
you
been crying
?
- Sorry I am so dirty, but I
‘ve been painting
.
There is often a present result from doing these actions.
- You
‘ve been crying
. (Your eyes are red.)
- I am dirty because I
‘ve been painting
.
We can use the present perfect continuous to talk about continuous or repeated actions or situations from the past till now.
- She
‘s been calling
you for days. (=She has repeated this action for several days.)
- I
‘ve been studying
since you left. (=I have done this action continuously without stopping.)
for, since, how long, lately, all day/week/month/etc.

Present perfect simple or continuous?
Situations that started in the past and still continue
We can use the present perfect simple and the present perfect continuous to talk about situations that started in the past and still continue. But we must use the present perfect simple with non-action verbs (stative verbs), and we normally use the present perfect continuous with dynamic verbs (although the present perfect simple is also possible.)
- We
‘ve had
this car for years. - I
haven’t been sleeping
well lately.
We use the present perfect continuous (and NOT simple) with dynamic verbs for situations that started in the past and still continue when we want to emphasise how long the situation has lasted.
- I have been waiting
for hours
! (=I want to emphasise that I’ve been waiting for a long time).
- I couldn’t do the dishes. I’ve been working
all day
.
Finished and unfinished situations
We use the present perfect simple for finished actions in the past when we don’t say when. We use the present perfect continuous for actions or situations that maybe have not finished or that maybe have finished (very recently)
- Who
has eaten
my cookies? (=We would say this if there are no cookies left. The action is finished.
- Who
has been eating
my cookies? (=We would say this if there are some cookies left)
- I
‘ve been watching
the series you recommended. I’ll tell you about it when I finish watching it.
- I
‘ve watched
the series you recommended. I watched the last episode yesterday.
Actions with present results
We can use present perfect simple and present perfect continuous for actions with present results. We use the present perfect simple if the present results come from completing the action.
- Look how nice my car looks. I
‘ve washed
it. (=The car looks nice because I have finished washing it.) - Something is different in this house.
Have
you
painted
it? (=The house looks different because you have completed the action of painting it.)
We use the present perfect continuous if the present results come from the process of doing the action.
- Sorry I’m so sweaty. I
‘ve been washing
my car. (=I am sweaty because of the physical activity that washing the car involves.) - How come you are so dirty?
Have
you
been painting
? (=You are dirty because of the process of painting.)
how long vs how many/much
We use the present perfect continuous to talk about the duration of an action, i.e. about how long we have been doing something. And we use the present perfect simple to talk about how many things or how much of something we have done.
- I’ve written
twenty
e-mails. (I’m talking about how many emails I’ve written.)
- I’ve been writing emails
for hours
. (=I’m talking about how long I have spend writing emails)

📜 Lyrics: \”Perfect\”
Hey dad look at me
Think back and talk to me
Did I grow up according to plan?
And do you think I’m wasting my time doing things I wanna do?
But it hurts when you disapprove all along
And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I’m never gonna be good enough for you
Can’t pretend that
I’m alright
And you can’t change me
‘Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
Now it’s just too late and
We can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
I try not to think
About the pain I feel inside
Did you know you used to be my hero?
All the days you spent with me
Now seem so far away
And it feels like you don’t care anymore
And now I try hard to make it
I just wanna make you proud
I’m never gonna be good enough for you
I can’t stand another fight
And nothing’s alright
‘Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
Now it’s just too late and
We can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
Nothing’s gonna change the things that you said
Nothing’s gonna make this right again (right again)
Please don’t turn your back
I can’t believe it’s hard
Just to talk to you
But you don’t understand (you don’t understand)
‘Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
Now it’s just too late and
We can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
‘Cause we lost it all
Nothing lasts forever
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
Now it’s just too late and
We can’t go back
I’m sorry
I can’t be perfect
