Bonjour, une petite question rapide.
Dans la phrase suivante :
Bob's not here. He's gone to work.
Bob n'est pas là. Il est parti travailler/au travail.
Le verbe "He's gone" : est-ce la contraction du verbe "have" au present pecfect?
He has been to work.
Merci.

Bonjour,
Les deux sont possibles, mais avec "gone out", la forme correcte et classique est "He has gone out."

Hello:
However, it should be noted that Bob's = "Bob is" is colloquial and is not proper English. When the apostrophe is used with a proper noun, it indicates possession.

This is Bob's car.
Where is Helen's book?
Don't you love Bridg's tests?
I would have translated this as:
Bob isn't there. He left.
Bonne journée!

"He left"

Hello: I wasn't aware that the phrase "He left" was only Anglais Américain. It's simply the preterite of "to leave" (left). What would be the Anglais britannique equivalent?
I will, however, endeavor

Hello notrepere,
Don't be upset please!
I don't know whether 'I left' is typically AE but well, I am sure that if you say so to British people they will understand you.
Best wishes!

he left is American English whereas in British English you usually say he has left but you'll be understood in both ways
