📌 Core Reference Table

📌 When to Use the PPC
- 1️⃣ An action that STARTED in the past and is STILL happening NOW 🔄
- 2️⃣ An action that recently STOPPED but has visible results right now 👀
- 3️⃣ To emphasise the DURATION or CONTINUITY of an action ⏳
📐 The Formula — 3 Parts — Always All 3!
✅ + Subject + have/has + been + verb-ING
❌ − Subject + haven't/hasn't been + verb-ING
❓ ? Have/Has + subject + been + verb-ING?
❌ − Subject + haven't/hasn't been + verb-ING
❓ ? Have/Has + subject + been + verb-ING?
📚 "I have been studying for 3 hours." → still studying right now ✅
🍳 "She has been cooking since 2pm." → she/he/it = HAS ✅
❓ "How long have you been waiting?" → question ✅
😴 "He hasn't been sleeping well." → negative ✅
🆚 PPC vs Present Perfect Simple
| PPC (have been -ing) | PP Simple (have -ed / irregular) |
|---|---|
| Focus on DURATION / PROCESS 🔄 | Focus on COMPLETION / RESULT ✅ |
| "I have been reading all day." (still going) | "I have read the book." (finished!) |
| "She has been working here for 2 years." | "She has worked here." (at some point) |

He/She/It/Everyone → HAS been | I/You/We/They → HAVE been
Key signal words: "for", "since", "how long", "all day", "lately", "recently" → think PPC!
PPC = DURATION focus | PP Simple = RESULT focus
