In English the verb to have is used to express existence, obligation, necessity or as an auxiliary verb, this means the same verb has diverse meanings, but in Spanish is different, the meanings are separate, we have haber and tener.
Let’s explain their usage:
Haber
1. To Express Existence
Note, when is used in the impersonal form is conjugated as the third person of the singular in all tenses, as follows:
hay – there is/are
había – there was/were
hubo – there was/were
habrá – there will be
habría – there would be
ha habido – there has been
For example:
Singular: Había una mesa en la sala
There was a table in the room
Plural: Había muchas mesas en la sala.
There were many tables in the room
2.To express need
as ser necesario (it is necessary) , it is written as follows (verbal periphrasis):
Subject (optional in Spanish) + Hay + que + main verb in infinitive + complement
For example:
Hay que encontrar la solución.
The solution has to be found.
3. As an auxiliary verb:
Subject (optional in Spanish) + have/had + main verb in participle + complement
For example :
Matha ha comprado chocolate
Martha has bought chocolate
Tener
1. To own or possess
For example:
Tengo un vestido bonito
I have a nice dress
2. As a verbal periphrasis to express obligation (Tener que):
is used to express obligation and may be substituted by deber (must).
It is written as follows:
Subject + tener + que + main verb in infinitive (personal form)
For example:
Tienes que ir a la escuela.
You have to go to the school or You must go to the school
3. As an auxiliary verb to reiterate or give emphasis to an action
For example:
Tenemos preparadas las maletas.
We have prepared the suitcases
With this sentence the subject emphasizes the fact that suitcases are already prepared.
4.To tell the age
For example:
Yo tengo 20 años.
I am 20 years old
5. As an idiomatic expression:
It is commonly used in spanish phrases to express feelings, emotions or sensations.
For example:
tener calor – to be hot
tienes celos – You are jealous
¡ten cuidado! –be careful!
tengo hambre – I am hungry
Now, knowing this, let’s begin with the answers:
1. Right answer: Hay mucho viento
This sentence is a good example of the first usage of haber (to have) to express existence. In this case is written in present and in impersonal form.
There is a lot of wind.
The options Hays and hayes (do not exist in spanish) and Haya are incorrect because they are not written in the third person in singular as the rule stablishes.
2. Right answer: Hay que leer “El Quijote”
This is a good example of the second usage of haber (to have) to express need.
In this case the sentence is written in present with the impersonal form to express the need to read the book “El Quijote”.
The options leo (I read) and leen (they read) are incorrect because the main verb leer (to read) is not in infinitive as the rule stablishes.
3. Right answer: Tenemos que comemos pastel.
Although the form tener + que is fulfiled, the main verb comer (to eat) is not correctly conjugated with the first person in plural nosotros (we).
The correct sentence is: (Nosotros) Tenemos que comernos el pastel
We have to eat the cake
4. Right answer: Correct
No hay que correr en esa calle
(Do not have to run on that street)
In this sentence it expresses there is no need to run in that street (in impersonal form) and is an example of the second usage of haber in the spanish grammar.
5. Right answer: Tenemos
Nosotros tenemos sueño
We are sleepy
This sentence is a good example of the usage of tener as an idiomatic expression.
Note, in spanish the conjugation of the verb must match in genre and number with the subject, therefore the correct form of tener in present with the first person in singular nosotros (we) is tenemos.
The options tienen (third person in plural) and tengo (first person in singular) are not according to the subject and are incorrect.
