Idiom of the day

Use of "Must have been"

The sentence "He must have been crying" expresses a logical deduction about the past.

It means:
👉 You are quite sure (based on evidence, like red eyes or tears) that he was crying sometime earlier.

Structure:

must + have + been + -ing verb = deduction about a continuous action in the past.

✅ Example:

"She looks exhausted. She must have been working all night."

"His eyes are red. He must have been crying."

Would you like me to also show you the difference between:

He must have cried
and

He must have been crying?
