Has been and have been are both in the present perfect tense. Has been is used in the third-person singular and have been is used for first- and second-person singular and all plural uses. The present perfect tense refers to an action that began at some time in the past and is still in progress.

What’s the difference between “has been”, “have been” and “had been”?

• Anas has been working in this company for more than 10 years. [He is still working here.]
• She has been notified about the changes in the document.
• The dog has been barking all night. [It’s still night time.]

Use “been” after the verb “to have” (e.g., has, have, had, having). For example: I have been to Paris. The puma has been seen in the city.

“It is being used” means that someone is using it at the moment. “It has been used” means that at some time in the past, somone has used it.

It can be used as a gerund, or in present or past continuous tenses. In a present or past continuous tense, being says that it is happening now, or was happening before, in a continual manner. He is being nice. She was being bad.

“BE” is the base form of the verb “be”; “been” is the past participle of the verb “be” and “being” is the present participle of the verb “be”.

“Thanks for being a good brother” is correct. We would never say, “Thanks for been a good brother.” Being and been are both forms of the verb “to be”. Being is the progressive form of the verb “to be.”

“Is being” is used to describe an action that started in the past and continues at present. So these sentences have different meanings: “Something is changed” describes the state of something; it has changed, maybe recently, maybe a long time ago.

‘Is been’ is grammatically wrong,when you use the word ‘been’ you’re reffering the past or ongoing action that started in the past,while ‘is’ is indicating present action. So,’has been’ is the correct one.

• employed,

Were is the past tense of be when used as a verb. Where means in a specific place when used as an adverb or conjunction. When it is used in a question to ask about a place or location, it functions as an adverb or pronoun. As a conjunction, it means in or at a specific place, time, etc.

Generally, “was is used for singular objects and “were” is used for plural objects. So, you will use “was” with I, he, she and it while you will use “were” with you, we and they. There is a tip you might want to consider. Even though you are singular, you must use “were”.

They are not homophones—words that have the same sounds or spellings—and their meanings and uses are quite different. “Were” (rhymes with “fur”) is a past form of the verb “to be.” “We’re” (rhymes with “fear”) is a contraction of “we are.” The adverb and conjunction “where” (rhymes with “hair”) refers to a place.

Your is an adjective that means “relating to or belonging to you.” Yours is a pronoun that means “that which belongs to you.” Yours is also used in letter writing as a closing. Your is less commonly used as a closing in letter writing.

YOUR is a possessive pronoun. There is nothing possessive in YOUR welcome so you can’t use it in this instance. The correct answer is YOU’RE. YOU’RE is a contraction for YOU ARE and the technical phrase is YOU ARE WELCOME.

She explained that “you’re welcome”—a phrase that is meant to be courteous—is sometimes perceived as insincere or snarky. When the phrase is exclaimed in the absence of thanks, as comedians have made popular, it is obviously rude. When used graciously, “you’re welcome” is a perfectly polite form of expression.
