Adding “Have” in a sentence or not?
I've got a question that bothered me a lot lately.
When do I know if it's right to use "have"?
For example: "I didn't understand anything you have said" or is it supposed to be written without the "have"?
Also, at the start of this topic, I said "I've got" is it right to add the "got"?
I would love to get an explanation as English isn't my native language and I'm eager to learn!
