A: Check the question to view the answer

A: I'm not sure how good your English is so i'll give examples instead!
Example 1:
A gives B a pen. (At 1pm)
*1 hour later* (2pm)
A:"Do you still have the pen?"
B:"Yes I do."
(Pen is with B after an hour.)

Example 2:
A gives B a pen. (At 1pm)
B gives the pen to C.
*1 hour later* (2pm)
A: "Do you still have the pen?"
B: "No I do not."
(B does not have the pen anymore.)

'Still' is used to refer to the present time.
In this case, 'still' refers to whether B has the pen at the time A asked B. (At 2pm)

Hope this helps!

Have is understood by the listener to mean they have no choice. Otherwise should would be used in it's place. Got is then redundant and dropped in common speech.

Got is often included when the speaker is trying hard to convince the listener to help them. This would be close to pleading and usually uses guilt of some kind to convince the listener.

A: "He has passed out on the couch."
This implies "he" has fallen asleep on the couch.

"He passed out paper to the students."
This implies "he" handed paper out to the students.

"He has gone to the store."
This implies "he" left the place where he was and went to the store.

Does that make sense?

A:
Great question

Have is the Old English word, while Possess is from Latin and probably entered English from the French spoken by the invaders of 1066.

When you have two words identical in meaning, but one is French-origin and the other is Old English, the difference is subtle, but almost always the same:

If it's French, it expresses the position of the ruling class
If it's English, it expresses the position of the working class

So, possession is explicitly about power and ownership

-I possess all of these lands

While having is as often simply about use and proximity

-Do you have that hammer?

Hope that helps 😀

A: “I won’t have you speak in the public” is a phrase before the action is done. “I won’t have you speaking in public” is phrase that is about something that is currently happening, hence the -ing at the end of speaking. Not about the question, but “the” in both sentences should be taken out to make it sound more natural.

A: "He has studied English at my university."

"He has been studying English at my university."

These two sentences sound similar, but the first one is past tense.
It's something that did happen but is no longer happening.

The second sentence is something that happened in the past but is still occurring. Hopefully, that makes sense.

A: You have beautiful eyelashes. 🕵🏼

A: you can also say "have i made you mad?"
or
"are you angry with me?"

A: @chaosXTY: I'm full, I'm done eating

A: "I've been good" is perfect. You can also say "Not to bad." "I've been doing OK." "I've been quite busy." "I've been going through a tough time." etc.

A: Have been sent, or has been sent, depending on the situation and object.

A: "i had to go there so I could meet you"

A: The second option sound natural

A: Most people would say: How have you been?

A: "What has happened?" but it's more common to just say "What happened?"

A: Both of these are correct, however they can imply two different things.

“I have got to like her.” - This May imply that you don’t WANT to like her, but you have to anyway.

“I have become fond of her.” - This implies that you started out not liking her or you were indifferent to her when you met, but you have now gotten to a point where you like her.
