* If someone
has gone to a place, he or she is there nowe.g. – Where’s Iris?
–
She’s gone to Anna’s house. Call her there if you want. (she’s still
there)
* If someone
has been to a place, he or she has travelled there and come back.
e.g. – I’ve
been to the USA
three times this year. (i travelled there and i’m back
now)
