Kita bisa membuat pertanyaan dengan kata have dengan menggunakan kata kerja bantu “to do.” Sebagai contoh:

- Positif: You have a pen.
- Bertanya: Do you have a pen?
- Have you a pen? Ini umumnya tidak benar, walaupun terkadang ditemukan dalam bahasa Inggris Britis.

Kata kerja have sering disingkat dalam Bahasa Inggris, tetapi apabila havedigunakan untuk menunjukkan kepemilikan kita tidak boleh menggunakan singkatan. Jika kita ingin menyingkat have maka kita harus menggunakan have got (lihat berikut). Contoh:

• I’ve a pen. He’s a pen. Kalimat ini tidak benar.

Jika do not dan does not menyertai have maka do not atau does not bisa disingkat menjadi don’t dan doesn’t. Sebagai contoh:

• He doesn’t have a pen = He does not have a pen.

Bentuk simple present dari have got adalah sebagai berikut.
