Collected references and books related to English grammar are analyzed in details to form the theoretical background this paper - The available theory concerning with “to have” verb is studied and followed in my study paper - Ideas of some possible difficulties are got from my understanding the English learning and teaching English at Trieu Thi Trinh 3rd Upper secondary school as well as my gained experiences in training course PART II: DEVELOPMENT CHAPTER SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND 1.Theoretical background Nowadays, English is a language widely used in the world It is the official language of many countries and many people use it as a second language.It is used as the language of many important fields, such as: aviation, sports, business, engineering, etc It can be easily seen that we need to master English to be able to have better access to human knowledge, and with international integration Therefore, equipping students with good knowledge of this language and the skills to use it is very important In reality, English has been a core subject in schools in Vietnam for many years Equipping teaching conditions as textbooks, reference books are always interested by teachers However, It is the fact that each book refers to different aspects of an issue To master the knowledge in a systematic way is not easy task ,the learner must synthesize from many different sources, and not everyone can find the suitable books SangKienKinhNghiem.net The knowledge related to TO HAVE verb in English is also not an exception For having the knowledge system to students adequately on this verb, I have also refered to many different books In this study, I am focusing on the following key issues: - The pronunciation of the verb HAVE in cases - The HAVE verb used as a verb + Meaning "possess" + Other meanings - The HAVE verb used as auxiliary verbs in different structures Practical background English verb is a main ingredient in sentence and TO HAVE verb in the English language is also Moreover, this verb is also used in many sentence structures with many different meanings Obviously, TO HAVE verb along with TO BE verb has the most diverse usage in English These are the verbs which the students meet regularly during the process of learning English at school However, in the proces of teaching English, we can see that not all students who can master the knowledge system related to this verb There are many reasons why students can not master this knowledge well The first reason is because of the English learning environment Primarily, students often practise writing to memorize grammatical structures and not pay attention much on practising speaking The second one is that students themselves are not aware of the necessity of learning English subject and learn English as a compulsory task The limited ability of the students for absorbing English lessons is also considered as a reason students can not achieve high results whereas some students have tried to spend much time on learning English The fourth reason is because students not know how to systematize the knowledge accordingly so that they can master the basic content of a lesson It is a fact that students try to remember the formula mechanically, or think SangKienKinhNghiem.net carelessly and sometime not find out the nature of the problem clearly to infer basic conclusions Therefore, teachers should provide a fairly complete knowledge system to their students , and help them understand carefully the knowledge learned CHAPTER THE REALITY OF TEACHING AND LEARNING THE KNOWLEDGE RELATED TO “ TO HAVE” VERB IN UPPER SECONDARY SCHOOL For high school students in general and at Trieu Thi Trinh 3rd High School , learning about the TO HAVE verb is usually used as a verb and they have seen that it is different from other verbs If regular verbs in the present tense on confirmation is divided as V, Vs or Ves with most verbs (eg I like or He likes; I watch or He watches ), the HAVE verb can be divided into “HAVE” or “HAS” Students also have to distinguish the difference between HAVE and HAVE GOT The negative forms of “HAVE” are used as “ DO NOT HAVE” or “DOES NOT HAVE” while “HAVE GOT” being “HASN”T GOT” or “GOT” In the next lesson, the students have distinguish usages of “HAVE” meant as “possess” (sở hữu) It is a fact that most of the students have translated an English sentence "I have breakfast at 6:30 a.m" into Vietnamese : " Tơi có bữa sáng lúc sáu rưỡi sáng." They also have to keep in mind that “ HAVE” meant as "possess", it is not used in the continuous tenses However, the verb “HAVE” has other means used in the continuous tenses For example, we can say: "I'm having breakfast." but we can not say, "She is having a new car of the her own now" The verb“ TO HAVE” with the function of an auxiliary verb is also complicated It can be used as auxiliary verb in the present perfect tense, present perfect continuous tense, past perfect tense , past perfect continuous tense, future perfect, future perfect continuous (active and passive sentences ) Besides, it is used in such structures as: must have + past participle, might(not) have + past participle, should(n’t) have + past participle, need(n’t) have + past participle, could(n’t) have + past participle, SangKienKinhNghiem.net would(n’t) have + past participle, was/were to have + past participle Each structure has different meanings In addition, it is also appeared in several special structures: have somebody something; have something done; have somebody doing something , etc In short, to teach students how to understand and distinguish the different usages of the verb“ TO HAVE” is very difficult, and it is more difficult to help students how to systematize this knowledge in a fairly full way CHAPTER SOME WAYS OF USING THE TO HAVE VERB IN ENGLISH 3.1 PRONUNCIATION Being a special verb , “TO HAVE” is conjugated : “has/have” for the present tense and “had” for past tense In affirmative form or negative from; present tense or part tense, the verb has its abbreviation: “have” can be pronounced as [hæv ] or [həv] “has” can be pronounced as [hæz] or [həz] We pronounce [hæv]/ [hæz] when there is stress and [həv]/[ həz] when there is no I have – I’ve [aiv] He has – He’s[hi:z] She has – She’s [∫i:z] It has - It’s[its] We has – We’ve[wi:v] You have – You’ve [ju:v] They have – They’ve[ðeiv] have not = haven’t [hævnt] has not = hasn’t [hæznt] had not= hadn’t [hædnt] Eg: has [həz] Has anyone seen my pencil?
