you have homework to do vs you've got homework to do
Is there a nuance difference between those two?
Is there a difference of nuance between one and another?
(I couldn't even ask right haha they both seems grammatically right to me, but I'm not sure which is natural)
my question is
can you tell the difference between " you have sth to do" and " you've got sth to do"?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Julie,
"Have" and "have got" can be used in the same way. There is really no difference between the two. I've noticed that American textbooks seem to favor "have", while British textbooks seem to favor "have got", but either one is perfectly acceptable.
You can only use "had" in the past tense, however. You cannot say "had got" when referring to the past.
"I had a dog", NOT "I had got a dog".
