What is the correct version and why?
Hello,
I've got a question about the following translation into English.
In German I will say: "Ich kenne ihn schon, seit er hierher gekommen ist.
1) I have known him since he has come here. OR
2) I have known him since he came here.
I learnt at school if I find the signal word since I had to use present perfect. So I prefer the first version. I think that couldn't be correct because I could come only one time to a place and so this action ist finished in the past ==> "he came here" is the right form and since refers to "known him since then"... So I think the first version isn't correct.
What is the right answer and the right choice?
Thank you.

What should I better use "going to" or "will" in this German sentence?
Hi to everyone,
I'm learning some English at this time. I've got a German sentence: "Ich werde eine Menge Englisch von meinem Aufenthalt (= stay) in London lernen."
I translated this sentence in this way: "I’ll learn a lot of English from my stay in London."
My teachter said I should translate this sentence in that way: "I'm going to learn a lot of English from my stay in London."
What exactly is the difference between the meanings of this two sentences? What in detail is the difference of using "going to" and "will"?
I thank you.

Adverbs
Hi,
I've got a question with using adverbs.
Here is an example:
"Today he has worked hard."
Is it also possible to say: "Today he has hardly worked."?
I thank you for your comments.
