Anyway, you must always try to use easy sentences. For example: you do not say "Mi estis ludanta" (I was playing) if you can say "Mi ludis" (I played).

If i'm narrating a story and want to refer to something that i've been doing for a while, i'd defininetely use "estis -inta".

PosmoX:Mi studas Esperanton ekde unu semajno.Why are you using these esti ...anta forms in here? Are you making word-for-word translation from English? If so, it has no sense at all. Read Lingvaj Respondoj de Zamenhof.

Hundies19:What's wrong with "Mi (estas) studinta Esperanton dum semejno" .Nothing wrong with that. It just has no sense at all. If you like to talk gibberish, then this is the perfect way to start.

Hundies19:Wait... if I put "Mi studinta Esperanton dum semajno." into the Google translator I get "I studied Esperanto for one week". It might not be precisely what he is looking for, but it's not gibberish.I guess that it is gibberish, as the sentence no verb. :/

It might not be precisely what he is looking for, but it's not gibberish.That's just because in Google Translate "studinta" corresponds to "studied". But the translation is wrong because nobody would say "Mi studinta" in Esperanto, it would always be "Mi estas studinta".
In any case "Mi studis" will usually be preferable.

tommjames:That's just because in Google Translate "studinta" corresponds to "studied". But the translation is wrong because nobody would say "Mi studinta" in Esperanto, it would always be "Mi estas studinta".I tend to leave out the copula for brevity since most people assume the present tense when it's omitted. Undoubtedly that does not Congru with la Fundemento though.
