Глагол «to be»

Глагол “to be” (быть, находиться) относится к группе неправильных глаголов. Три формы глагола “to be”: to be – was, were – been.

У этого глагола есть несколько форм, которые зависят от времени, числа, лица.

Значения глагола “to be”

1. Смысловой глагол:

to be + предлог + существительное

а) находиться, приходиться

The bulk of British foreign trade is with the USA.

б) иметь, представлять

The development of foreign trade is of great economic significance for Great Britain.

2. Вспомогательный глагол (на русский язык не переводится):

а) при образовании времен группы Continuous: to be + Participle I

to have a good time – хорошо проводить время

to have a rest – отдыхать

to have classes – заниматься

to have tea (coffee) – пить чай (кофе)

to have meals (breakfast, dinner, supper) – есть (завтракать, обедать, ужинать)

to have a bath/a wash – принять ванну, помыться

to have a shave/a shower/a rest – побриться, принять душ, отдохнуть

to have a sleep/a dream – поспать, помечтать

5. Раньше для образования вопросительных и отрицательных предложений, если глагол «to have» являлся смысловым, не требовалось вспомогательных глаголов: The Queen has many rights and duties. Has the Queen many rights and duties? Это правило сохраняется для литературного стиля. Для современного английского языка характерны две формы: have got или глагольные формы со вспомогательным глаголом do: Does the Queen have many rights and duties? В британском английском have со вспомогательным глаголом do используется для обозначения привычного, повторяющегося действия или состояния.

Под влиянием американского английского формы со вспомогательным глаголом do становятся все более употребительными и в тех случаях, когда речь не идет о привычных действиях. В американском варианте английского формы глагола to have проще; как правило, во всех случаях для формообразования употребляется глагол do.

6. Если глагол «to have» является эквивалентом модального глагола или входит в состав устойчивых словосочетаний, то для образования отрицательных и вопросительных форм необходимо использовать вспомогательный глагол «to do» в соответствующем времени:

They had a good time in London.

They did not have a good time in London.

Did they have a good time in London?

7. Употребление have got предпочтительно, если речь идет о владении, ограниченном временными рамками настоящего момента. В этом случае при образовании отрицания и вопроса вспомогательный глагол не нужен. I have got enough time to visit the British Museum. I have not (haven’t) got enough time to visit the British Museum. Have you got enough time to visit the British Museum?
