This lesson was referenced for the writing exercise "Cathy's vacation". Although the first sentence here in English expresses the idea of doing something for a while, ALL of the FRENCH examples use "depuis". It would be really helpful to have other instances used as examples of the "present perfect" - especially when we are bounced back to this lesson in the midst of an exercise that is not about “depuis”!
More examples please! not only using depuis
