Basically, it refers to expressions that indicate the use of particular verb tenses. Such phrases can be single words, typical word combinations, or groups of words in most cases adverbials, or even whole sentences. The advantage for language learners and, in this case, mainly for English learners is clear If we want to construct a sentence with one of those expressions, we can mostly rely on the tense that goes with it and conjugate the verb careful!

In combination with the following key words, it usually appears in the simple form or the ing-form progressivesince, for, recently; since 7 o’clock, for five years etc.“Mary hasn’t seen her best friend for three years.”You can also rely very well on the key words for the simple pastyesterday, last year, two hours ago, last weekend, in 2007 etc.“Francis moved to Italy in 2010.”The past perfect also bears some signal words. However, you have to be careful as they can also stand for the present perfect.
