I haven't and I don't have.

Question

Hello I would like someone to explain to me when use them?

He estado investigando un poco en otros sitios, pero encuentro muchas contradicciones, por favor si alguien me pudiera explicar mejor se los agradecería. Saludos

I don't have time.(I think is correct)

I haven't time or i haven't had time?... (I have doubts about how use it)

Answer 1

I haven´t is contraction of I have not, which is the same as I don´t have and I do not have.

I haven´t time .... No tengo tiempo

I haven´t had time ..... No he tenido tiempo

Can I say: Yo no he estado en otro pais... I don't have been to another country... or I haven't been to another country.. are the same??

Only I haven't been to another country is correct here.

In short... I can use: I don't have time or I haven't time?

Yes

Thanks. The contractions I think I know to use them. But my doubt was the last one. Thanks a lot. - 007e54d7, Jul 21, 2013

Answer 2

I believe they can be used interchangibly, but **I do not have* or I don't have * is much more common.

Can I say: Yo no he estado en otro pais... I don't have been to another country... or I haven't been to another country.. are the same?? - 007e54d7, Jul 20, 2013

It would be I haven't been to another country. I don't have been is incorrect. Yes, you can use "I don't have time" or "I haven't had time." - rac1, Jul 21, 2013
