had have where and when use

Hi,

had have where and when use

I think you mean 'have had' or maybe 'had had'.

Let me begin by asking you if you have learned the Perfect tenses yet. eg

They have cooked dinner.

They had cooked dinner.

Do you know when to use these tenses?

YES THEY HAVE COOKED DINNER MEANS THIS SENTENCE BELONGS OF PRESENT PERFECT TENSE
AND THE SECOND ONE (THEY HAD COOKED DINNER ) DEFINES THE PAST PERFECT TENSE
