西班牙语学习者常犯的错误
Spanish speakers sometimes make specific mistakes when using have got because of differences with 'tener'.
- 使用 do/does 与 have got: In Spanish, you don't use an auxiliary verb like 'do' with 'tener'. However, with have got, have is already the auxiliary verb. So, do not use do 或 does for questions or negatives with have got.
- 错误： Do you have got a car?
- 正确： Have you got a car?
- Forgetting got: 虽然 I have a car is correct, if you want to use the have got structure, remember to include got.
- 错误： She has a new job? (if you mean has got)
- 正确： Has she got a new job?
