In Norwegian the perfect is used in the following instances:

-When an action, process or property in the past extends into the
present. Ex: I har arbeidet som lærer i to år: - I have worked as a
teacher in 2 years, and still do.

-When an action in the past makes neccessary some action or
attention from the listener. Ex: The horse has run away from his
hedge. (The listener has to go out to bring it back)

Is this the same way it is used in Swedish and Danish?
