British English uses the "have got" form more often because it makes it unnecessary to paraphrase the negative or questions with "to do": I've got a pen. I haven't got a pen (instead of: I don't have a pen) Have you got a pen? (instead: Do you have a pen?) Has anyone got a one dollar bill? (instead of: Does anyone have...?).http://www.englishforums.com/English/HaveAndHaveGot/chvx/post.htm#11981Thu, 23 Apr 2009 15:52:21 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:11981whl6261http://www.englishforums.com/English/HaveAndHaveGot/chvx/post.htm#11981http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-11981.xmlI think they don't have big difference.
