Haves and Have-Nots : Grammar & Spelling Tips



Remember the had in sentences like I had better go now. Because I had can be contracted to I'd. People often hear it as I and leave out had altogether. I better go is not correct in Standard English.


Always use I'd or I had.


Avoid Should of.


In sentences like I might have known them.


You should have gone.


Many people use of instead of have.


This is wrong.


Remember to use have.
