'For', 'Since' and 'Ago'.
We can use **for** or **since** with the **present perfect** to say how long something has happened. //I have known him since 1980.// or //I have known him for 22 years.// The meaning is the same. **For** is used to talk about a period of time, **since** to talk about when the action started. //He started his own business six months ago.// //The first book was printed over 500 years ago.// //I have lived in this city since 1980.// //I left Denver twenty years ago.//
 * ago** is more often used with the **past simple** to say when something started.
 * So the difference between 'since' and 'ago'?**
 * Since** tells us the starting point of an action which is still continuing now. **Ago** tells us the starting point of an action which is finished.
