Q. Did you talk to him meaning?
Did you talk to her is simply asking someone if he or she talked to her. Have you talked to her is simply asking someone if he or she talked to her. In other cases, the distinction is situational.
Q. Have you talked to him lately meaning?
If person B replies: “Have you talked to him recently?”, that would usually indicate that person B is speaking from curiosity; he is interested in any news about John that might have come up during the conversation.
Q. Is grammatically incorrect wrong?
Grammatically incorrect implies the work is factually accurate, but has errors in grammar. Gramatical is a term used to describe a phrase or word that follows the rules of grammar. To say something is grammatically incorrect would be like saying it is “right wrong” or “correct incorrect”.
Q. Why is off of grammatically incorrect?
“Off of” is well-established as standard in American English. Plain “off” may be stylistically preferable in many cases, but it is simply not a rule of English grammar that if a word could be removed it must be removed.
Q. Has anyone seen or saw?
Saw is the PAST TENSE of the verb see, and usually comes immediately after NOUNS and PRONOUNS. Seen is the PAST PARTICIPLE of the VERB see. Generally, seen is used alongside have, has, had, was or were in a sentence to make COMPOUND VERBS. USAGE: saw : This word is a stand-alone VERB.
Q. How do you use seen?
Seen is the past participle of the verb see can be used to form perfect tenses.
- Present perfect for example is: “I have seen”, “We have seen”.
- Past perfect for example goes further using the word ‘had’: “I had already seen.”
Q. Is it I have never seen or saw?
You can say “I never saw it.” This is correct, but would be less commonly used, because it is past-tense in a form that implies it is over and done with. So, you were watching for something for a specific period of time, but you never saw it (in that time period).
Q. Have you seen or have you watched?
To this AE speaker, “seen” is better in this context. If, however, you had loaned your friend a DVD, “watched” would be more appropriate. There’s no “rule” to cite here. Your tense is correct.
Q. What is the difference between have you and did you?
Have you is used in interrogative sentences. So, is did you. Have you is usually used in the second person. So is the case with did you.
