Have p.p since ago

I learned that 'I have studied English last year' is wrong and it should be ' I have studied English since last year' and then I was wondering if 'I have studied English since 2 years ago' is grammatically correct?

Thank you so much as usual in advance!

... since his mother died 5 years ago.
... since we received the documents 10 years ago.
... since they bought the hous
