My husband has learnt he


Aghhhhhhhhh Kay - where is yor gramer gon ??

OED 'learn .. Pa tense and pple learned, learnt'
Or are you objecting that I missed out a 'that'? - surely OK in
colloquial writing? ;-)


But you needed the past participle. Learn, learnt, learned
You would say "my husband has eaten the...." and not "my husband has ate
the......"
