hi everyone i'm
arnelle
and today we're gonna look at some
special grammar
you can see i have two sets of examples
here
what's the difference between
i have a sister
i have got a sister and
i got a sister
what's the difference between
i have to leave
i have got to leave
i got
to leave
let's start with a general
overview
you can see my chart here
does it look confusing
don't worry we're going to look at
everything step by step
i have two rows
you can see
plus noun
and plus
verb
i have plus noun i have got plus noun i
got plus noun
sister is my noun
i have to leave i have got to leave i
got to leave leave is my verb
there is a big difference between these
two rows they are not the same
i also have three
columns
neutral
informal and
informal
neutral means you can use this form in
formal and informal situations
informal second column
this form is normally used in spoken
english
and it's correct
the third column
is also used in spoken english but it's
not correct why am i teaching you bad
grammar
because this third form is used by many
native english speakers
so it's good for you to know
but
i don't suggest you use it
excuse me
is this american english or british
english
that's a really good question
can you wait
two minutes i will explain this fine
and in case you're wondering i'm
american
[Music]
let's start with the first row plus noun
mini reminder
you need to choose have or has depending
on your subject
so if your subject is he she or it you
need has
in this lesson i mainly use
have
first
all three of these sentences refer to
the present
you might be thinking what god god is a
past simple verb
that true but today's grammar is an
exception
all of these refer to the present
two
all of these sentences refer to
possession
what is possession
a possession is something you have it is
yours
this car is her possession
this watch is her possession
this shirt
is her possession
with this grammar a possession isn't
only an object it can be a family member
like my sister
or it can be a characteristic
you have a beautiful smile
you have got a beautiful smile
you got a beautiful
smile let's make the second one a little
bit more natural and contract
you've got you've got a beautiful smile
a possession can also be an illness
both of my grandparents have
diabetes
they've got diabetes
they got diabetes
so american english or british english
have is always the preferred standard
verb
have got
is more commonly used by speakers of
british english
it's not something many americans would
say
but take a look at this little clip here
[Music]
okay
this is an american movie but the song
is i've got the power
it's clear to everyone it means i have i
have the power
i got you got he got she got
this form is more commonly used by
speakers of american english
you got three days to get me my money
don't you mean half three days
take a look at another clip
[Music]
i got
music
[Music]
i got music i got rhythm
i have
maybe you've seen
gotta
gotta is that lazy spoken form short for
got
a
again
here's another song
i got a feeling
i got a feeling i have a feeling
i got a feeling daniel doesn't like me
very much
this grammar remains the same in
negatives and questions
positive i have a good boss
what's present simple negative
i don't have a good boss
do you have a good boss
i haven't got a good boss
have you got a good boss
i don't got a good boss
do you got a good boss
okay so far i've only spoken about the
present
what about the past what about the
future
if you want to speak about the past or
future possession
you need to conjugate you need to change
have and only have
i have roses in my garden
past i had i had roses in my garden
future i will have roses in my garden
i'm going to have roses in my garden
you cannot do this with have got or got
i had got i had gotten roses in my
garden that doesn't work
you can see even when i was writing my
script the editor suggested had
let's move on to the second row plus
verb
these sentences here mean
must or need to
they have nothing to do with present
possession
if you say i have to leave i've got to
leave i got to leave it means you must
you need to leave maybe you're late for
a bus
instead of saying i got to leave some
people are going to use
gotta
so yes god i can mean god uh like i got
a bad headache
or god i can mean
god to
like
i gotta speak to you later
you have to pay your tuition before the
end of the month
tuition is the money you
you pay for your university education
you pay your tuition
every year
you've got to pay your tuition before
the end of the month
you got to pay you gotta pay your
tuition before the end of the month
again same thing in negatives and
questions
positive
you have to wear
a helmet
you don't have to wear a helmet
do you have to wear a helmet
you've got to wear a helmet
you haven't got to wear a helmet
have you got to wear a helmet
you've got to wear a helmet you don't
got to wear a helmet do you got to wear
a helmet
past or future
again you can only change have to
passed i had to i had to pick up a
prescription from the pharmacy
future i will have to i will have to
pick up a prescription
from the pharmacy
let me know in the comments what's
something you have to do later
i have to
clean my kitchen
it's a disaster
one last thing one last thing
common confusion
look at my two sentences here
your speaking has gotten better your
speaking has got better
sentence number one is the present
perfect tense
today's lesson is not the present
perfect
sentence number one has nothing to do
with present possession
why do i have two forms
usually in american english it's get got
gotten gotten is that past participle in
british english get god god
sentence number two
i got a new watch for my birthday
here god is the past of get
i got a new watch for my birthday i
received a new watch for my birthday
so whenever you see have have got god
always look at the context look at the
situation look at the conversation
i think that's everything
can you give me a comment below and
what's something you have to do later
thank you very much for watching this
lesson i can't wait to see you soon bye
