Program 3: Ownership & Obligations: Mastering the Verb "Have"

About this course

Expand your conversational English by mastering one of the most versatile verbs in the language: "Have." In this program, you will explore the Simple Present tense to talk about what you own, your family structure, people's physical traits, and your everyday responsibilities (using "have to"). You will learn the structural rules for both "have" and "have got," understanding how they are used in American English. To enrich your sentences, you will build a practical vocabulary of nouns, adverbs, and descriptive adjectives (such as hair type, eye color, and size). Finally, you will refine your listening and speaking skills by practicing two key features of fast, casual American pronunciation: H-reduction (dropping the "H" in function words) and the D/T flap.
