In this video I’m going to show you how to think about the Spanish verbs tener vs haber.
Specifically, you’re going to learn when to use each of these Spanish verbs accurately despite the fact that they are both the translation of the English verb “to have”.
With that said, here is a quick preview of what you’ll learn:
- How to use the Spanish verb tener to talk about possession and ownership
- How the Spanish verb haber is slightly more complicated than most Spanish verbs and how you should think about it.
- How to use Spanish verb haber using the impersonal form
- How to use verb haber in the form we need to talk about events in the past
Check out the previous video mentioned in the lesson:

I really prefer a teacher whose main language is English like this guy. He's far easier to understand for me as sort of a beginner. I have watchhed the videos by Anna the Spanish lady and she is really cool but she's nowhere near as good of a true teacher as perhaps this guy. She has a really nice personality but I'm really not impressed with her overall teaching skills from the perspective of an English-speaking person trying to learn Spanish. I've always had a really hard time figuring out this language despite playing around with it for 3 or 4 years. I live in Ecuador and I just use Spanglish all the time and I never seem to progress at all beyond that. So I'm trying to actually learn the language and I just started looking at KZfaq videos. I've used Duolingo but it's so slow it's ridiculous. So far this guy looks quite good. I'm going to check out other teachers whose main language is English as well.

Until this video, it never occurred to me that "tener" and "haber" could be confused as meaning the same thing. Given all the weird mistakes I've made on my language journey, I'm glad that I didn't have this one. Nevertheless, as always, your video was very good. I really like the video clips you use. Is there any way that you could play the video clips twice? You always pronounce the sentences twice, but the video clips just go by so quickly!

You can use haber as kind of "soft destiny" or fulfilment....

Andrew I am an intermediate student. The logic with this translation in the following sentence however still is confusing to me. "There has to be encough food for everyone" "Tiene que haber suficiente comida para todas" Here both tener and haber are used in the same sentence and yet there is no physical possession as usually needed with tener. Also why not use subjunctive as this is expressing a desire. Gracias como siempre
