The short form of "you have".

of “you have”「you have」的 The short form縮寫。

Here is the part that trips learners up: it is normally only used when "have" is a helping verb, forming the present perfect — "You've finished", "You've been waiting long". When "have" is the main verb meaning "own" or "possess", people usually do NOT contract it: you say "You have a lovely house", not "You've a lovely house".

Here is這裡有個 that trips learners up讓學習者跌倒的 the part地方： it它 is normally only used通常只用在 when “have” is a helping verb「have」是幫手動詞的時候， forming構成 the present perfect現在完成式—— “You've finished”「你做完了」、 “You've been waiting long”「你等很久了」。 When “have” is the main verb當「have」是主要動詞、 meaning “own” or “possess”意思是「擁有」的時候， people人們 usually do NOT contract it通常「不」縮寫： you say你會說 “You have a lovely house”， not而不是 “You've a lovely house”。

(Some older or British speakers do say the second one, so it is not impossible — just not what you should copy.) Like the other contractions, it belongs to speech and to friendly writing; formal writing prefers "you have". In fast speech the 've often shrinks to almost nothing, so "You've got it" can sound like "Yuv got it" or even "You got it" — which is also a real casual American way of saying it, with the have simply dropped.

(Some older or British speakers有些年長或很英式的說話者 do say確實會說 the second one第二種， so it is not impossible所以不是不可能—— just not what you should copy只是不建議你學。) Like the other contractions和其他縮寫一樣， it它 belongs to屬於 speech口語 and to friendly writing和輕鬆的書寫； formal writing正式寫作 prefers比較喜歡 “you have”。 In fast speech在很快的口語裡 the 've這個 've often shrinks常常縮到 to almost nothing幾乎聽不見， so所以 “You've got it” can sound like聽起來可能像 “Yuv got it”， or even甚至像 “You got it”—— which而那 is also本身也是 a real casual American way of saying it美國人一種真實存在的隨性說法， with the have simply dropped把 have 直接丟掉了。
