The word and is a conjunction, and when a conjunction joins two independent clauses, you should use a comma with it. The proper place for the comma is before the conjunction. On Monday we’ll see the Eiffel Tower, and on Tuesday we’ll visit the Louvre.

About Transcript. A sentence is a grammatically complete idea. All sentences have a noun or pronoun component called the subject, and a verb part called the predicate.

Use who when you are talking directly about the person who is doing something. Like the pronouns I, he, and she, who is the subject of the sentence. This is the person performing the action.

Has sentence example

• Has anybody ever told you that you’re beautiful?
• He has lived more than eighty years.
• If Len has time, maybe he could help me.
• He has a mind to spend the rest of his life in that country.
• If he has custody, she couldn’t get the money.
• Everything has to go according to your plans, doesn’t it?

If you have a sentence in the past tense well it’s good news, because no matter what subject you have, you will always use had. So here They had a car. That means they don’t have a car now – They had a car in the past. But we’re using had because it’s in the past tense.

We-ve sentence example

1. It looks like we’ve got company.
2. You all have been so nice to us, and we’ve enjoyed our stay.
3. How far do you think we’ve traveled?
4. I know, we’ve been all through this before – but I still don’t understand.
5. “A fine mess we’ve made of it!” he remarked.

“We have” is definitely correct in formal English, since you are signifying possession, not the act of getting. In colloquial English, “got” is often used a synonym for “have” and other verbs, and has become common usage.

We’ve is the usual spoken form of ‘we have’, especially when ‘have’ is an auxiliary verb.

Only Use Apostrophes to Replace Letters in Standard Contractions

contraction of you have:You’ve already been there.

A contraction is a shortened form of a word (or group of words) that omits certain letters or sounds. In most contractions, an apostrophe represents the missing letters. The most common contractions are made up of verbs, auxiliaries, or modals attached to other words: He would=He’d. I have=I’ve.

“How have you been?” is a common question from native English speakers. It’s asking what you have been up to and how life has been for you from from a certain point in time. Perhaps you’re being asked how you’ve been doing since the last time you saw each other.

“How have you been” is usually used to greet someone whom you haven’t seen for a while, I would say more than a few weeks. Even though you can still say “How are you”, by saying “How have you been” or “How’ve you been” you are actually acknowledging the fact that it’s been a long time since you last met.

“How have you been?” is the present perfect tense. You could also say “How are you?” using the present tense. But because you care about your friend and you knew he was sick, it would be better to ask “How have you been?” He can respond by saying “Oh, I’ve been great,” or “I’ve been feeling much better.”
