Hi,

Base form      Past simple      Past participle      Present participle 

Have               Had                  Had                     Having

Example - I have a car (present)

Example - I had a car (in the past)

Correct usage of have and has:

I have, You have, We have, They have / She has, He has, It has

The guideline for correct usage of has and have is above in bold, it would be incorrect to say I has a car, as it would be incorrect to say She have a car.

How about this?  "William A. Bowles, a British captain turned pirate, is believed to have intentionally ran his ship aground on St. George Island."  Is it RAN or RUN?  Why?

 are you sure that it should be RUN instead of RAN? because the word "believed" is past tense

 so for me i think using the word RAN is more appropriate.  Im not sure.

Anon, we are QUITE sure.

To have run his ship aground.

Following "have" you take the participle of the verb. He runs. Yesterday he ran. He has run.
