SpanishEdit

EtymologyEdit

A Latinizing respelling of Old Spanish aver, from Vulgar Latin *avēre, from Latin habeō (“hold, have”), probably from Proto-Italic *habēō or *haβēō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gʰh₁bʰ- (“to grab, to take”).

PronunciationEdit

• IPA^(key): /aˈbeɾ/, [aˈβeɾ]

VerbEdit

haber (first-person singular present he, first-person singular preterite hube, past participle habido)

1. (auxiliary verb taking past participle to build perfect tense) to have

   He trabajado muy duro durante este mes.

   I have worked very hard during this month.

2. (idiomatic) to hold; to possess
3. (impersonal, in third person only) to exist; “there is”, “there are” (hay); “there was”, “there were” (había)

   (idiomatic)

   Hay gato encerrado.

   There is a catch.

   (idiomatic)

   Había gato encerrado.

   There was a catch.

4. (with “de” + infinitive) to have to do.
   • 1920, Alain René Le Sage, Historia de Gil Blas de Santillana, page 85:

     Aquí, me dijo, has de trabajar.

     Here, he told me, you have to work.

5. used to denote a past obligation

   Haberte llamado.

   I ought to have phoned you.

Usage notesEdit

• (to have): haber is no longer used with the sense of ownership, except in some idioms. The modern term to express ownership is tener (“to have”).
• (impersonal, in third person only, to exist): In the present indicative, the only form still in use is hay (“there is, there are”). The standard third-person forms are used in other tenses and moods.
