The verb 'to Have Got'

Hello!

In class, we studied the verb 'have got'. You know that you must remember that the form for the third person singular of the verb is has got. Below, in the Spanish section, I'll leave you a summary chart. Remember that this verb indicates possession and we use the verb 'to be' for the following expressions:

tener hambre/sed (to be hungry / thirsty)
tener frío/calor (to be cold / hot)

tener suerte (to be lucky)
tener años (to be years old)

The short answers are formed with the subject pronoun plus have/has for the affirmative and haven't/hasn't for the negative. For example:
Have you got a brother ?  - Yes, I have. / No, I haven't.
Has Peter got a car? - Yes, he has. / No, he hasn't.

Don't forget got but never use it in short answers. Look at the following examples:
Mary has got long hair (Mary's got long hair): María tiene el pelo largo.
You have got a small mouth (You've got a small mouth): Tienes la boca pequeña.
Has your sister got a boyfriend? : ¿Tu hermana tiene novio?
Yes, she has. : Sí, lo tiene.
No, she hasn't. : No, no tiene.

See you soon!
