Diferenças entre o Present Perfect e o Simple Past

O simple past é usado com alguma palavra/expressão que denote tempo definido, tais como yesterday, in 1945, last year, etc.

I saw Paula yesterday.

We didn´t have a holiday last year.

Também se usa o simple past com os interrogativos When e What time:

When did you go?

What time did she arrive?

E com a palavra ago:

They met 5 years ago.

Se não houver tempo definido, use o present perfect:

Have you ever seen a camel?

Has she got dressed yet?
