Keep your fantasy alive. It's all you got
*have or have got
Both are correct grammatically, but mean entirely different things. "I got X" means "sometime in the past, I came into the possession of X". ... You can not use got on its own as a present tense meaning 'have' or 'has' in standard English.
. However, even in US English, "have got" is used in certain instances, namely to mean present tense have (in the sense of possession, or to mean must): I have got a lot of friends.
What did you say you use to teach again, Frank?
