Is this correct? I have gotten an English lesson today? Well, if you asked Shakespeare, he'd probably say yes. If you asked me, I'm British, I'd say no. And if you asked an American, well, we'll talk about that later. But the fact is that a simple verb like have is still causing you problems that will prevent you from reaching an advanced level of English. So come on, let's end this confusion and finally learn when to use: I have, I have got, and I have gotten. Are you ready?
Okay, so as you probably know, the verb have is very flexible and has many uses in English. We use have to talk about possession, meaning something you own or hold, something that belongs to you. For example, I have blue eyes, my friend has a new car. Have is also used to talk about relationships or connections with people. I have two beautiful daughters. The twins have a very strong relationship. We can also use have to talk about illnesses or actions or eating or many other things like, Chris has a cold this week. I have a shower at 7:00 am every morning. My wife and I have pasta every time we go to that restaurant.
Okay, so that's fairly simple. But listen carefully because it's going to get a little bit more complicated. And to help you with this, I've actually made a test for you at the end of today's lesson. And I've made a beautiful PDF, which you can get with all the notes from this lesson, extra examples, extra questions. Just go to the link in the description, click the link, enter your email address, and I will send that to you right to your inbox.
Okay, so before we look at when to use have got, we first need to look at the verb get, another verb with many meanings. Now, we don't have time to explain all the meanings of get. We would be here forever. But you can watch that video there, which explains 17 ways we can use get. So watch that video after this one.
Okay, let's have a look at the difference between the British and American usage of get. In British English, we use get, got, got. So the third form is got. I have got. But in American English, they use get, got, gotten like I have gotten. Why is that important? Well, let's find out.
In British English, have got is a very, very common expression when we're speaking, and native speakers like me use this expression all the time. And basically have got means exactly the same as have when we're talking about possession or something that belongs to you, something that you own, like I have got an older brother, means exactly the same as, I have an older brother. It's just another way to say that something belongs to you. She has got a new dress on. We have got a beautiful garden. They have got a lot of friends. As you can see, we use have or has, depending on the subject, followed by the verb got, and then the thing that you own. So, the forms in British English are get, got, got.

Yay!! I am 71 and at 13, my first English teacher at high school taught me the primitive forms of verbs get, got, got. Much, much later I came across with gotten and got confused. Only now, thanks to you, I can understand what it is all about 😅 Thank you so much, you're the best ❤❤❤

[@nikovald]

What a wonderful lesson, Ihad many doubts about it but now they are resolved, thanks.

[@aresee8208]

To me, an American, there is a difference between "they have to" and "they have got to." It's a difference of emphasis. "They have to" is generally a simole statement of fact. An "oh by the way" kind of thing. It's like, did you know that that? But "they have got to" would be much more emphatic. It's more like, there is no way around it, they absolutely must do it.

[@marina-li3tk]

Love your videos. You remind me of good old fashioned (but modern) real English Teachers.

[@EnglishWithGreg]

Thank you! 😃

Teacher Greg, thank you very much for clarifying so well. May the Lord bless you for the gift of teaching.

[@IBakeBread]

Great explanation, thank you!

[@q19w]

Thanks, Greg. You shed a bit of a light to a topic I was wondering about. But using "have" and "got" in meaning of "must" is still obscure to me. Sometimes there is a trace of "have" in contraction. E.g. "It's got to be real", which I believe means "It must be real". And sometimes there is no trace of "have" at all. E.g. "I gotta run", which I believe means "I have no time, I must go". If you explain this point It would be great.

Nailed it.

[@cmtwei9605]

I've for a long time wondered about why British English dropped the 'gotten'. British English still retains 'forgotten' and 'begotten'.

[@Iamssrk]

❤ Thank you ❤

[@dona4him942]

I'm American. And what you're explaining is somewhat correct. When we say, "he has got to", or "I have got to", it means we're putting more emphasis in our expression. But it's not used very often. Instead of saying, "They have just gotten home.", I say, "They just got home." Also, there's a northern accent and a southern drawl in the US. Southern people are sometimes hard to understand because of how they talk and their idioms. It can get complicated.

[@danielgonzalezd.4343]

😊 Great lesson, Greg. I have the same doubts and this was a good explanation on how to use have got, get and gotten. As for the test I have one wrong. (Last question) Regards from NY

[@roselinocorreamendes1772]

Can you make a video talking about the "th" pronunciation PLEASE

[@gregc.mariano9226]

I was thought American English in school so I have to use "have gotten" and appropriately.

[@user-qp6gw2ju1b]

Hi Greg, this is Arjun from India. You made a video about gerunds that were great. So could you please consider my request to make a video of noun+adjective (end with 'ed' and normal) Ex: leave the door closed. Comb your hair flat. I would like you to make a work sheet. Thank you.

Why not to ignore "get" used in possession context? Just ignore "get" in that case and don't bother...

[@JanDasBorstigeTier]

Got to got to ...🎵🎶

[@roserpuig3394]

I failed n. 4 because I was thinking about British language. In this case, none would be correct? Thanks.

[@djmacross]

What about forgotten?

[@dona4him942]

The only one I got wrong was #3. I guess that pretty good for someone who's from America. 😂😂😂

[@shravanreddy7874]

I got 5/5

[@ingles_language24]

In the sentence: "the family next door haven't got any pets", wouldnt it be correct to say: the family next door hasn't got any pets

[@sidtico]

After this lesson I have got a pain in my brain

[@hkesim]

Score: 5

[@mirriamvalentine9939]

Had gotten.

[@theculturedkidlanguages]

Gosh there are so many English speakers I know who still get this one wrong! Haha

[@abokickel]

I noticed another BE/AE difference in one of your examples, namely "The family next door don't have any pets". An American would probably say "The family next door doesn't have". I've noticed that Britts often treat collective nouns as plural (e.g. a family consists of several individuals) whereas Americans go with singular, which somehow feels more grammatically correct to me. "The team has played really well vs. The team have played very well, The band has good songs vs. The band have good songs". To use the plural verb in these examples sounds just so wrong to me. 😅 Have you perhaps made a video about this, collective nouns, that is?

[@jaygilbreath187]

I agree…saying “the family” as a plural is very different. It “hits my ears” strangely. Say for example, if a child were to say “the family” and use it as a plural we would correct his/her/their mistake. It’s almost like the same discussions on another video regarding using “hospital” instead of “the hospital.”

[@BenvanBroekhuijsen]

Hey there, I liked the video you did with Portuguese with Leo, and I think you do a great job at explaining the English language. But what really turns me off watching this (for me) first video of yours, is that with every text or image that appears, there is an annoying popping sound. I would either use a more subtle sound, or even better, no sound at all. I wanted to leave this feedback because I think it is a shame you put undoublty a lot of work in creating these videos, but then the overkill on popping sounds makes it annoying and cheesy. Keep up the great work.

[@EnglishWithGreg]

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Don’t worry… I’ve changed style since this video, and the new ones don’t have this popping sound. 😉

[@user-mr9mk1hc9s]

I have scored four out of five questions.

[@bibiiankilevich3875]

... but I haven't got the email with your PDF yet... 😏 (it's true!!)

[@rudolflinsbauer3447]

I had one answer which was wrong because I didn't know that in the quiz we use gotten...I thought its an English quiz not an American. haha

[@yuriyguminskiy4448]

I have got the score of 4/5. I made a mistake in the 4th question.

[@english1838]

Please, fixed the sound of the video for next time, it shall be improved (or return as good as it was before). 5/5 otherwise.

[@user-rn2ii1ix1p]

I prefer just "do you have" instead

[@Curios0ansios0]

But, gotten is nicer 😌💅

[@debal131]

Hello Greg: I got 3. and 5. wrong
