Present Perfect

I’m learning English and I currently learning Present Perfect.
So, when I use name such as Christian, is it correct to say: Christian has eaten all burgers or Christian have eaten all burgers?

Siting and , thank you for the reply.
Answer #4
there is a simple logic behind it 1- has is used for = he , she , it 2- have is used for = i , you , we , they
Christian is a he so you will use has but if it was , Christian and I then , you will both become “we” so christian and i have eaten burgers.
if it was christian and jack , both of them represent “they” so christian and jack have eaten burgers
when you are learning new tenses , especially perfect category , memorize things like that and in time it will become habit as you constantly use them.
i have to say most of the people who are native to english , do not use “present perfect” , “present perfect continuous” , ” past perfect” , “past perfect continuous” in their daily lives. they may even tease you by saying “why do you talk so proper” if you use them too much. i know it from myself
Answer #5
Thank you for this explanation.
Answer #6
Christian has eaten all the burgers
You use “the” because it is a definitive article.
It is obviously referring to a particular lot of burgers and not just any burger in the world!
Answer #7
Unless stating that Christian has eaten burgers instead of like hot dogs or anything else. Some could have asked what Christian had eaten at the cookout tonight. The answer could be “Christian has eaten all burgers”. This would mean they at just burgers. Then likewise some could have asked who had eaten all the burgers. Then the answer could be “Christian has eaten all the burgers”. This would mean they ate them all and nobody else got any.

Hello everybody, I have been doing grammar exercises in workbook. Can you tell me which tense is correct to chose in next sentences?
How long have you had / have you been having this book?
They live / They’ve been living here for three years.
Answer #9
The answer could be "Christian has eaten all burgers". This would mean they at(e) just burgers.
just – Merely; only
all – Being or representing the entire or total number, amount, or quantity
“Christian has eaten just burgers” would be the “more” correct in your Scenario
you used “just” to explain the use of “all” yourself
