Saying "You've brown eyes" "We've grey hair" etc is VERY outdated English to the point of being nonsense speak.
I've walked = perfectly okay. a verb follows.
I've eaten = perfectly okay. a verb follows
I've cats = you're retarded. that is a noun.
I've ten fingers = retarded. a quantifier(adjective)
have is only a contraction in the verbal form. only a verb or adverb should follow.
unless you want to sound like eurotrash your entire life.
agreed. you can use the contraction on pronouns following a verb that has a past tense and not really much else
kæk, you actually made a thread about it
Why can't you say
>I've 10 cats
That doesn't make sense to me
i think I have is proper if what comes after is a number
everything else can get contracted ezpz
But I've is literally I have, that's what I don't understand
Ive grown up speaking English
i wouldn't say I have grown up speaking English, sounds dumb
For most people, to say that would be a lie. Lying is bad.
"Have" is two different verbs in english. One means "to posses" and the other is a 'helping verb' that indicated the tense of the primary verb.
The contraction is not for "to posses." The contraction is for the verb tense.
You're ignoring our tense rules. I've only works past or cyclic-phased present tense
This makes sense to me, thanks
Yes comrade we've all to realise that nuspeak is better lel kek lmao wew tfw
Threadly reminder that English majors are useless
I sincerely hope this isn't a problem.
People don't speak like that.
D-Do they?
Who fucking cares, variation in accent and dialect is a defining feature of the English language.
i thought is was using words that make no phonetic sense whatsoever
>unless you want to sound like eurotrash your entire life.
I've could live with this
Don't listen to these spergs. If you've mastered English to where you care about what they're talking about, you're an ace.
Anyway, these all sound British to me. If Brits don't get to define proper English use I don't know who does.
>That doesn't make sense to me
Haven't you been taught English every fucking year since the third grade? I have, so get a fucking grip.
Shut the fuck up and learn morn than one language instead, faggot.
It's the same in Danish desu
