Tener - Spanish verb 'to have, having'
Singular verb forms - verb forms for ‘I’, ‘you’ and ‘she, he, it’
Common misconception
To say 'I have', 'you have', 'she, he, it has' you need the words for 'I', 'you' and 'she, he, it'.
The verbs 'tengo', 'tienes' and 'tiene' mean 'I have', 'you have' and 'she, he, it has'. You do not need to use separate pronouns 'I', 'you', 'she, he, it'.
