Conjugation of Have
What are Personal Pronouns?
Have to
"Have to" es un semiauxiliar que se suele traducir por "tener que".

La diferencia con "must" es que "must" se usa para dar órdenes o expresar una
obligación moral interna de la persona que habla u ordena y "have to" indica que
la obligación viene de normas externas, una tercera persona o de una
circunstancia.

I must go to work.

Tengo que ir a trabajar.

I have to do what my parents say.

Tengo que hacer lo que mis padres dicen.

Una de las características importantes que lo distinguen de los "auxiliares puros",

como "must", es que necesita del auxiliar "do" para la negación y la interrogación.
También se le añade -s a la tercera persona del singular.

Su conjugación en presente simple del indicativo sería:
