Syntaxe
Present perfect et past perfect (appelé aussi pluperfect) se construisent avec haveauxiliaire.
Dans certaines grammaires, -EN est le symbole du participe passé.
Il s'agit bien d'un symbole, et non d'une terminaison.
Exemples de verbes au participe passé : thought, taken, become, cut, worked.
Present perfect actif et past perfect actif :
have / had est suivi du Vau participe passé.
Present perfect : haveauxiliaire + verbeau participe passé.
Past perfect : hadauxiliaire +verbeau participe passé.
Present perfect passif et past perfect passif :
have / had est suivi de been et du Vau participe passé.
Present perfect : haveauxiliaire + been + verbeau participe passé.
Past perfect : hadauxiliaire + been + verbeau participe passé.
(haveauxiliaire + Vau participe passé),
le past perfect simple actif (hadauxiliaire + Vau participe passé)
sert notamment à faire un bilan, mais dans un contexte passé, sur une période révolue.
Cette rétro forme verbale s'insère donc dans une suite d'énoncés où les autres verbes sont au passé (concordance / cohérence des temps).
Le past perfect simple actif peut aussi contribuer à attribuer un "plus" énonciatif aux mots de l'énoncé :
Within the space of a single year Grand had built his thought into a distillery, and a distellery into a family philosophy.

A First Funeral come through the doors of the trauma center last Saturday — except for Christina. Five days after the girl’s death, his secretary told him he was invited to Christina’s funeral.
