Online Lesson 11

In the previous lessons we went over the verb DO.

In this lesson we will start going over the last verb in this course – the verb HAVE.

The verb HAVE

Quick note:

In the simple present tense the verb HAVE has these two forms:

  • I, you, we, they => have

  • She, he, it => has

We will use these forms in our examples and exercises.


Now, before going over HAVE as a helping verb, it's important to go over some of its other basic meanings. In this lesson we will cover three important meanings of the verb HAVE.

The meanings of the verb HAVE:

1. To own or hold
