Language analysis
Perfect gerunds
The perfect gerund (having done) always refers to a time before that of the verb in the main
clause. It is used to emphasise that the action was completed in the past.
It can be used as:
• the subject of a sentence.
Example: Having studied science subjects made it easy for me to choose a university
degree.
• an object after some verbs, e.g. admit, deny, forget, mention, regret, and remember or
after prepositions.
Example: My friend didn’t remember having lent me his English textbook.
My cousin often talked about having studied for five years at a top university.

Perfect participle clauses

The perfect participle has the same form as the perfect gerund, e.g. having asked, having
studied.
We can use perfect participle clauses to:
• describe an action that happened before the action in the main clause.
Example: Having finished their course, they started looking for jobs.
• talk about the reason for the action in the main clause.
Example: Not having read the book, he can’t give us his opinion.
