== Possession ==
 
In English, "to have" is used to indicate possession. For example, "I have a car" means "I possess a car." In Standard Moroccan Tamazight, "to have" is expressed using the verb "uffi" (أفي). "Uffi" literally means "to exist," and is used in Standard Moroccan Tamazight in the same way the verb "to have" is used in English. Let's take a look at some examples:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Standard Moroccan Tamazight !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Subject !! Standard Moroccan Tamazight !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| أفي مالية || Affi malia || I have money
|-
|-
| I || ɣer || /ɣer/ || have
| ماكاينش شي واحد أفيه || Makaynsh chi wahed affiha || There is none that she has
|}
 
== Obligations and Necessities ==
 
In English, "to have to" is used to indicate obligations or necessities. For example, "I have to go to work" means "I am obligated to go to work." In Standard Moroccan Tamazight, "to have to" is expressed using the verb "kayhder" (كايحضر). "Kayhder" literally means "to prepare," and is used to express obligation or necessity. For example:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Standard Moroccan Tamazight !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| You (singular) || ɣer || /ɣer/ || have
| كايحضر للدراسة كل يوم || Kayhder laddarasa kl yawm || I have to study every day
|-
|-
| He/She/It || ɣer || /ɣer/ || has
| ما عنديش الوقت, كايحضر رشدة || Ma 3ndish lwa9t, kayhder rushda || I don't have time, I have to hurry
|-
|}
| We || ɣer || /ɣer/ || have
 
== Experiences ==
 
In English, "to have" is often used to indicate experiences. For example, "I have a headache" means "I am experiencing a headache." In Standard Moroccan Tamazight, "to have" is also used to indicate experiences, but it is not the only way to express them.
 
Let's look at the following dialogue:
 
* Person 1: أنا ماسمعت حتى نهارا نهارا (Ana massma3t hta nharan nharan) (I haven't heard anything all day)
* Person 2: شكون لقا خبار؟ (Shkon lqa khabar?) (Did anyone find any news?)
* Person 1: لا ما لقاليش شي حتى أنا أواقف يمين || La ma lqalish chi hta ana awa9f yamin. (No, I haven't heard anything all day and I am clueless.)
 
In this dialogue, Person 1 is expressing that they have not experienced any sound all day. In Standard Moroccan Tamazight, "to experience" can be expressed using the verb "jra" (جرى) in the past tense.
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Standard Moroccan Tamazight !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| You (plural) || ɣer || /ɣer/ || have
| كايجرالو قلبو ديال الخوف || Kayjralo qlbo dyal khuf || His heart is racing from fear (literally: his heart experienced fear)
|-
|-
| They || ɣer || /ɣer/ || have
| جاتني مغص, غير مقدرتش نتحرك || Gatni mghs, ghir mqdratch nt7erk || I got a stomach ache, I couldn't move (literally: I experienced a stomach ache and I couldn't move)
|}
|}


As you can see, the conjugation of the verb "have" is the same for all subjects in the present tense.
== Compound Tenses ==


== Examples ==
In English, "to have" is used to form compound tenses with a past participle. For example, "I have seen the movie" means "I saw the movie." In Standard Moroccan Tamazight, compound tenses are formed using the auxiliary verb "kaynin" (كاينين). "Kaynin" is the present tense of "to have," and is similar to the English auxiliary verb "to have."  
Now let's look at some examples of how to use the verb "have" in sentences.


* Person 1: ɣer n tmazight? (Do you have Tamazight?)
Here are some examples of compound tenses in Standard Moroccan Tamazight:
* Person 2: ɣer (Yes, I have).


* Person 1: ɣer n tmazight? (Do you have Tamazight?)
{| class="wikitable"
* Person 2: ur ɣer (No, I don't have).
! Standard Moroccan Tamazight !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
* Person 1: ɣer n tmazight? (Do you have Tamazight?)
| كاين لي كيقول الحقيقة || Kayn li kaygol l7a9i9a || He who tells the truth exists (literally: there is one who tells the truth)
* Person 2: ɣer n tmazight u tayri (Yes, I have Tamazight and Arabic).
|-
 
| ما كانش ساكن فالمدينة || Ma kanash sakn flmadina || He wasn't living in the city (literally: he didn't exist in the city)  
* Person 1: ɣer n tmazight? (Do you have Tamazight?)  
|}
* Person 2: ɣer n tmazight u tayri u franssiyya (Yes, I have Tamazight, Arabic and French).
