Hi guysGuess who's backwith a brand new topicThis time i'm gonna talk aboutHave and have got (Possess, own …etc)We often use Have got rather than Have alone. So you can say:* We've got a new car. Or We have a new car.* Ahmed has got two sisters. Or Ahmed has two sisters.We use Have got or Have for illness, pains etc:* I've got a headache. Or I have a headache.In questions and negative sentences there are three possible forms:(A)* Have you got any money? I haven't got any money* Has she got a car? She hasn't got a car(B) * Do you have any money? I don't have any money* Does she have a car? She doesn't have a car (C)* Have you any money? I haven't any money (Less usual)* Has she a car? She hasn't a car (Less usual)When Have means "Possess" you cannot use continuous forms (Is having / are having)* I have / I've got a headache (not "I'm having")For the past we use had (usually without "got"):* Sara had long hair when she was a child (not "Sara had got")In past question and negative sentences we normally use Did/Didn't* Did they have a car when they were living in Riyadh?* I didn't have a watch, so I didn't know the time* Sara had long hair, did she?Have breakfast / have a bath / have a good …etc Have (but not have got) is also used for many actions and experiencesFor example:Have = breakfast / dinner / a cup of coffee / a cigarette etcHave = a shower / bath / a swim / a rest / a party / a holiday / a nice time etcHave = an accident / an experience / a dream etcHave = a look (at something) / a chat (with somebody)Have = a baby (=give birth to a baby) Have = difficulty / trouble / fun * Goodbye! I hope you have a nice a good time* Sara had a baby recently,,,,
,,,, * I usually have a sandwich for my lunch (have = "eat" not "have got") But * I've got some sandwiches. Would you like one? In these expression, Have is like other verbs. You can use continuous forms (Is having / are having) where suitable:* I had a postcard from Ahmed this morning. He's on holiday.He says he's having a wonderful time. (Not "he has a wonderful")* The phone rang while we were having dinner. (Not "while we had")In questions and negative sentences we normally use Do/Does/Did:* I don't usually have a big breakfast. (Not "I usually haven't)* What time does Sara have lunch? (Not "has Sara lunch")* Did you have any difficulty finding somewhere to live? |
