Words You Ve Never Heard Before Flashcards Memorang In that context you would say "i've never heard it before". if you were talking about a time in the past, you would use the past perfect tense and say "i'd never heard it before". for example: "last weekend i was at my friend's house and he played me a song and i'd never heard it before.". They're both correct, depending on the situation. "have never heard" is present perfect tense. "never heard" is simple past. i have never heard of that theory before. i never heard a gunshot. “i have i’ve never heard” to me is talking about the span of your live.
You Have Never Heard This Before Mcrider "i had never heard this song before this performance" if the performance is in progress, i.e. in the present, i might use 1 and i would not use 2. i would be more likely, though, to say "i have never heard this song before", with "before the present" or "before this performance" understood. It's not grammatically incorrect, but it's not the default, so it should be used carefully. "never heard it before" is the usual, 'relaxed' phrasing. we can move most adverbs around to different parts of the sentence to change emphasis, though, and this is a great example. “i’d never heard of you [before someone told me about you last week].” both the not hearing and the hearing are in the past. “i’ve never heard of you [until this moment].” the not hearing is in the past but the hearing is in the present. I would say that "i've never heard it said" or even better "i've never heard it named" since it's specifically then naming you've never heard said. "someone" is unnecessary. no need to introduce a character who fails to say anything into the narrative.
