Dear Goyo and Brynleigh, if you don't use has/have got in America, it doesn't mean it's bad English! mad It's British English. Do a bit of googling. Greetings.

e.g. BBC

jeje, don't get mad, what do they know about speaking "real" English? lol - 00494d19, Nov 4, 2010
indeed :) - Gocika, Nov 4, 2010
jajaja, I said I have not ever heard anyone say it, not ever, and I do get around a bit! Is it proper English? I have no idea. It sounds weird to me! lol - Brynleigh, Nov 4, 2010
It's not wierd at all. To me, it sound as the most proper way to say it. Greetings from Europe, you should come and visit us ;)! - Gocika, Nov 4, 2010
I have been there and I do enjoy the differences in language and culture. - Brynleigh, Nov 4, 2010

"Sarah has got blonde hair" is bad English.

You should say, "Sarah has blonde hair."

Why would it be bad English?!?!? It's just British English! - Gocika, Nov 4, 2010

After some research, I think I must agree with you, Gocika. I stand corrected. - Goyo, Nov 4, 2010

Hola Ornella. Si, "Sarah has got blonde hair" = "Sarah tiene pelo rubio" ¿Cuál es tu pregunta?

Por favor utiliza mayúsculas en tus contribuciones. grin

I never hear anyone say "has got".

Sarah has blonde hair or Sarah is a blonde or Sarah's hair is blonde.

past perfect would be "has gotten" but that doesn't work for describing hair. - pesta, Nov 4, 2010
Could it be because you live in America? :/ - Gocika, Nov 4, 2010
Oh, maybe so...I have heard, "He "has gotten" himself into a bit of a turmoil. - Brynleigh, Nov 4, 2010
That would be Present Perfect Tense, something a bit different ;) - Gocika, Nov 4, 2010
Come for a visit, you will find a lot of language differences, no doubt. - Brynleigh, Nov 4, 2010

No piensen que el correcto forma es "Sarah tiene pelo rubia" porque Sarah es una chica? smile

Sara es rubia / Sara tiene pelo rubio (in the latter 'pelo' modifies 'pelo). - samdie, Nov 4, 2010
'pelo' is masculine / 'mesa' is feminine. It doesn't matter whose hair/table. - samdie, Nov 4, 2010
