Hi:)
1.I hear that verb (
tart , begin, leave )uses present verb if subject is planned
So , "she leaves 2hours later" ,"I start studying English 4:00" is it okay to write above?
2. If I use stative verb with present perfect form, isn't it strange?
Because I usually see stative verb with present and past verb form (like I taste /tasted soup )
Thank you. ![]()

If I unplanned things then , is it strange?
For example: "May be I leave in 5minutes. "or "well... I start doing my homework at 6?"
Thank you.
vpieMaybe I leave in 5 minutes.
You can't do that. Say I may leave in 5 minutes.
vpie"well... I start doing my homework at 6."
That's OK. Adding "well" doesn't change anything.
