🧠 Grammar Focus
Enfoque gramatical
We use ‘have to’ to talk about things that are necessary. It shows a rule or duty. The sentence is: subject + have to + verb. For he, she, it, we say ‘has to’. ‘Have to’ means you need to do something. Use it for things you must do. A common beginner mistake is to say ‘he have to’ instead of ‘he has to’. Examples: I have to study. She has to work. We have to go. You have to listen. They have to clean.
Usamos ‘have to’ para hablar de cosas necesarias. Muestra una regla o deber. La estructura es: sujeto + have to + verbo. Para he, she, it se usa ‘has to’. ‘Have to’ significa que necesitas hacer algo. Úsalo para cosas que debes hacer. Un error común es decir “he have to” en lugar de “he has to”.
