Have is usually used for ownership and description, but it's also a very popular substitute for eat and drink.

I have a new car.

I have time to go to the movies.

She has cereal and coffee for breakfast every morning.

Have is also an important helping verb: I have lived in Minnesota for three years. In this example, (have) + (past participle) makes the present perfect tense.

 

I have glasses.
teacher
You have sunglasses.
jow
He has a gun.
gangster
She has a tricycle.
girl
The cake has a lot of fruit on top of it.

  jow

Note: To make "have" negative in the present tense, use don't or doesn't + have.

Correct: He doesn't have any money. / I don't have any money.

Incorrect: He hasn't any money. (but okay in British English)
Have - Present Tense (negative with contraction)
I don't have.... We don't have...
You don't have... You don't have...
He doesn't have... They don't have...
She doesn't have...
