could you explain about lie (to tell the untruth) and lie (to place something in a certain place) and lay (like lay down)? I'm confused to death hahaha
"Lie" (to tell an untruth) → "lied" (past tense) → Has, have, had "lied":
- I lied to you yesterday about not having any money.
- She has lied to her friends about her grades all year long.
- Until last week, he had lied about his childhood.
That part is pretty straightforward. It works like any other verb. But when it comes to the other "lie" (to be in a horizontal position), it becomes confusing.
"Lie" → "lay" (past tense) → Has, have, had "lain":
- Nan lay in bed all day yesterday.
- By the time he realized he had a sunburn, Peter had lain on the beach for six hours.
- Henry has lain on the sofa since noon.
I won't even get into "lie" vs. "lay," but if you want to know about that, read this: http://bit.ly/1lxFFtj
