The translation to Russian is "иметь", but do not make too much effort to remember the infinif, it does not help much...
We will see how to use the verb.
The form that should be remembered is: "есть" that one could translate as "there is".
But better to read the examples:
- "I have money": "У меня есть деньги"
- "He has a sister": "У него есть сестра"
At the negation of these sentences, we already have no verb:
- "I have no money": "У меня нет денег"
- "He has no sister": "У него нет сестры"
There are other cases where you do not use the verb at all. Where it looks like "I" in French, we just say "to me" in Russian. Here are two examples:
- "I'm 20 years old": "Мне двадцать лет"
- "I hurt": "Мне больно"
