Is this sentence copied from an online article grammatically correct? "She's just come back from a long journey."?
7 answers
Shouldn't it be "came back". Also, the "She's" part of the sentence, is it a contraction of "She has"?

It is correct. For a version with "came" it would have to be: "She just came back from a long journey". Note lack of " 's " after "She". In your version "She's just come" is short for "She has just come."

It is correct. "She HAS just COME back." "Come" is the past participle of "to come."

It would be "she's just come back" or "she just came back" the has makes the difference.
