Grammar
Past simple or past perfect?
Hey guys,
I received a message from a friend, and he used the past perfect but I didn't understand the reason. So would be good if you could have a look at it and explain why it was used or that it was a grammatical error.
This is the phrase:
"We will share what we have learnt."
My guess is that it is a typo, and it should have been: "We will share what we learned."
Thanks for the help.
