Should/could/might have + participle: 2nd conditional?
Hi,
Which should be the tenses for this?
You should have told us you couldn't be at our birthday party if you knew (know??) you couldn't (can't??) attend it.
I think we can talk about the current capacity with the action in the past like this.
If you spoke English, you could have gotten the job a few weeks ago.
If you were rich, you could have bought that Porche you saw two days ago.
