Hasn't is singular

Haven't is plural

He hasn't gone to the store.

They haven't gone to the store.

Has not = Hasn't

Have not = Haven't

Hi guys,
Let;'s all be clear about the Simple Present tense of the verb 'have'.

Singular
I have
you have
he/she/it has

Anonymousi haven't gone to the store. is that not singular?
You need to look at person as well as singular/plural.

Singular:
Fist person: I have
Second person: You have
Third-person: He has

Only third-person singular takes "has."
