SO you can also use the Past Simple for definite time
without a time expressionif it’s clear that you’re talking about a
finished period or activity.
In this case the finished period isa trip to Paris.
![Page 45: Present Perfect (all in one)](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052618/55496330b4c905e94e8b5a3a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Contrast this with ‘indefinite time’.
The time of the action isn’t defined because it doesn’t matter!
Instead, ‘indefinite time’ makes a connection to the present.
