-TU HAS__ido or ado…,
-usted,el, ello ha,
-nosotros hemos?
USTED/EL/ELLO HA __ido or ___ado
NOSOTROS HEMOS___ido or ado

Nos vs mos etc?
MOS at the end is just a conjugation that make the verb mean WE / NOSOTROS are doing “something. ”rather than I/yo am or you /usted are doing something.
Eg. re: verb llavar:
We (nosotros) Llevamos
NOScan be can be ADDED TO THE END OF AN INFINITIVE AND MAKE THE INFINITIVE BE REFERRING TO SOMETHING THAT’S HAPPENING / OR BEING DONE TO US. SO kinda means US. Like llevarNOS.
I don’t know all the times that you use it or don’t, but certainly if you’ve already got a verb like put a Play-Doh, etc. then you can add the NOS to the Infinitive of the net of the next verb in the sentence.
AND NOS , ME TE ETC IS MANDATOEY FOR REFLEXIVE VERB
