When to use has, had, have? This is a problem always. Whether it is in the form of written or speaking, the grammar is the same. Whenever I attend an Group discussion or a extempore, I find people making mistakes in these.

So why not a small session about the same?

More lessons to come. So hold on. Will post whenever I find time. Keep checking for updates.
