What's the difference between "have got" and "got", especially in oral English? Thanks a lot! For example, He has got a beard, sunglasses. You got new legs? You got longer arms than me, man. I’ve got someone I want you to meet. We've got them boxed in. I got news for you, Michael I got Scofield right here. " have" or "has" sometimes could be omitted? I am confused about that. Thank you for your explaination.

In American usage, "I've got" is equivalent to "I have," meaning you possess something. This is informal but very common. If you want to say that you have received something, you say "I've gotten."

Right, in oral English have is usually omitted, however in formal writting, you can't use this term, I got it will mean you had it means you no longer have it now.

When you omit "have" you are still saying "have got", but "have" is understood. If you say, "I have got news for you", it is the same as saying "I got news for you". You can also say "I have news for you." "You have new legs." "We have them boxed in". Any of these ways are understandable to an English speaker. Hope that helps!
