Indicates possession or existence.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In business, asking if someone 'has' a certain resource is a polite way to gauge their capability. Usage is identical to the mainland, but the tone is often softer in social settings. Cantonese speakers use {有|yǒu} (yau) in the same way, often in code-switching with English. Used in Singlish to express possession, often with a unique sentence structure.
The 'Location' Rule
Always remember: {有|yǒu} is for things, {在|zài} is for places.
Don't use '不'
Never say '不有'. Always use '没有'.
