In English the perfect tense (often called 'present perfect') implies that the event or action is still relevant at the time of speaking or writing. For example compare: * I have written to him. (Implications might include 'but I haven't yet had a reply' or 'I hope he will be more careful in future') * I wrote to him. (Simple statement of fact).
