To show something belongs to you.
3
14560

17410

00:18
So, let’s take a look at the board.
5
18410
2810
00:21
Ok…
6
21220
1200
00:22
When you’re talking about ‘you’, or me, we say, “I have…”
7
22420

00:28
Ok…
8
28669
1020
00:29
If something belongs to a boy or man, we say, “He has…”
9
29689

00:36
For a girl or a woman.
10
36210

00:38
“She has…”
11

00:41
For an animal or thing.
12
41040
2440
00:43
“It has…”
13
43480
3040
00:46
For you, “You have…”
14
46520
4240
00:50
For us.
15
50770
1000
00:51
Me and some other people.
16
51770
1730
00:53
We say, “We have…”
17
53500
2580
00:56
Ok, and some other people.
18
56080
2260
00:58
“They have…”
19
58340
1940
01:00
Ok…
20
60280
1000
01:01
This is very easy, you just have to remember it.
21
61280
3470
01:04
Ok…
22
64750
1000
01:05
So, let’s practice with these pictures.
23
65750
3659
01:09
Here we have a rabbit…and a carrot.
24
69409
4710
01:14
So which one do we have to use?
25
74120
3320
01:17
Well, a rabbit is an animal.
26
77440
2980
01:20
So we have to use ‘it’.
27
80420
1960
01:22
“It has a carrot.”
28
82380
3780
01:26
Again, “It has a carrot.”
29
86160
3880
01:30
Now, in this picture, we have two ants.
30
90040
4680
01:34
Ok…
31
94720
1000
01:35
So, for two things we have to use ‘they’.
32
95720
4740
01:40
Ok…
33
100460
860
01:41
So, here are two ants and an apple.
34
101320
2900
01:44
So, we’re going to say, “They have an apple.”
35
104240
5340
01:49
“They have an apple.”
36
109580
2960
01:52
Ok, let’s move on to some more practice.
37
112540
5360
01:57
Ok…
38
117900
820
01:58
Let’s do some practice together.
39
118720
2760
02:01
You have to think about if we should use ‘have’ or ‘has’ in the blanks.
40
121480
5499
02:06
Ok…
41
126980
860
02:07
So let’s look at the first one.
42
127840
1920
02:09
“The girl ‘blank’ long hair.”
43
129760
3140
02:12
Ok…
44
132900
720
02:13
Now, ‘the girl’.
45
133620
2360
02:15
We can we use instead of 'the girl'?
46
135980
2800
02:18
We can say “she”.
47
138780
2360
02:21
“She” then what do we say?
48
141140
3040
02:24
“Has.”
49
144180
1800
02:25
“She has long hair.”
50
145980
2220
02:28
Or…
51
148200
660
02:28
“The girl has long hair.”
52
148860
2480
02:31
It’s the same.
53
151340
1550
02:32
Ok…
54
152890
1000
02:33
The next one.
55
153890
1000
02:34
“The boys…”
56
154890
1270
02:36
Now, there’s an ‘s’ here.
57
156160
2040
02:38
That means there’s more than one boy.
58
158200
3020
02:41
When we have more than one thing, what do we use?
59
161220
4640
02:45
“They.”
60
165860
1290
02:47
Ok…
61
167150
930
02:48
“They…”
62
168080
1640
02:49
Do we say ‘have’ or ‘has’?
63
169720
2859
02:52
We have to say “have”.
64
172580
3380
02:55
“They have caps.”
65
175960
1920
02:57
Or…
66
177890
1000
02:58
“The boys have caps.”
67
178890
2470
03:01
Ok, the next one’s easier.
68
181360
2440
03:03
“I…”
69
183800
1580
03:05
When we have ‘I’, we say “have”.
70
185380
3820
03:09
“I have a friend.”
71
189200
3440
03:12
Ok, the next one is also easy.
72
192640
2660
03:15
“He…”
73
195300
1219
03:16
“He ‘blank’ an umbrella.”
74
196519
3920
03:20
What do we have to use?
75
200440
2420
03:22
“Has.”
76
202860
1340
03:24
“He has an umbrella.”
77
204200
3500
03:27
Ok, the next one says, “The dog ‘blank’ a bone.”
78
207700
5660
03:33
“The dog…”
79
213360
1760
03:35
What do we use for animals?
80
215120
2700
03:37
“It.”
81
217820
1400
03:39
“It…has a bone.”
82
219220
4180
03:43
Or…
83
223410
1000
03:44
“The dog has a bone.”
84
224410
3469
03:47
And last.
85
227879
1000
03:48
“My mother and I ‘blank’ a car.”
86
228880
4540
03:53
Ok, this one’s tricky.
87
233420
1689
03:55
“My mother and I…”
88
235109
3151
03:58
We have to say “we”.
89
238260
4489
04:02
“We…have…a car.”
90
242749
3451
04:06
“My mother and I have a car.”
91
246200
4440
04:10
Ok…
92
250640
1079
04:11
So I hope you understand how to use ‘have’
93
251720
3680
04:15
and ‘has’ and I’ll see you in the next video.
94
255400
1640
04:17
Bye.
