Have is usually used for ownership and description, but it's also a very popular substitute for eat and drink.
I have a new car.
I have time to go to the movies.
She has cereal and coffee for breakfast every morning.
Have is also an important helping verb: I have lived in Minnesota for three years. In this example, (have) + (past participle) makes the present perfect tense.
Note: To make "have" negative in the present tense, use don't or doesn't + have. Correct: He doesn't have any money. / I don't have any money. Incorrect: He hasn't any money. (but okay in British English)
The Present Continuous Tense
Lesson Eight
The Present Continuous Tense
The Present Continuous Tense usually describes things that are happening now, but it can also be used to describe important things in your life, and future activity.
The Present Tense describes the things you do every day. Note the use of an "s" at the end of the verb when describing a man, a woman, or a thing. Do not confuse the present tense with the simple form.
The verb "be" is the most important verb to learn in English. It's also the most complicated. In the present tense it has three forms: am, is, are. In the past tense, it has two forms: was and were. The verb "be" is also used to make the passive voice.
