My question/comment: I learned a new vocabulary term, la meta. My question today is regarding the verb, he puesto. What is the verb in Spanish? How is it conjugated? And what the heck is he? (Aack. I can only remember the present tense conjugation of verbs.)
The verb is poner (to put, to place). The tense is a compound tense: perfecto de indicative (present perfect indicative).
This tense expresses an action that took place at no
definite time in the past. It is also called the past indefinite. It is a compound
tense because it is formed with the present indicative of haber (the auxiliary
or helping verb) plus the past participle of the main verb.
