Thank you!

Hi, unprlld.

Could you make your titles more connected to your question, please? For example: Has - past tense? or "Question about has" or something like that.

Just "confused" is not very descriptive.

Thanks!

The verb to have:

I have 24 cousins.

You have 24 cousins.

He, she has 24 cousins

It has 24 spokes.

We have, they have...

The third person singular (he, she, it, etc.) takes "has." The others take "have."
