Who uses "Do you got ?" !!! ... In British English, "Do you have ?" is considered more "correct" and "refined" ... "Have you got ?" more "common" and less educated. I've never heard an English person say "Do you got ?" and would suggest that this is an an Americanism .. more specifically, an African Americanism, and a construction favoured by lyricists in the Rap and Hip-Hop world, which has simply spread into everyday usage in some sectors of society ... in the States ! :-)

@Inglesonline, I'm not sure that you specify exactly who uses " do you got ?" I'd have to watch the video again to be sure, but think that it was a generalized comment you made about it being an expression in use, though (of course) not a correct one. Perhaps, because you had been discussing the differences between English and American usage, it just came across (to me) as being implied that "do you got" was commonly used (on both continents).
Some nice videos, by the way ! I only 'discovered' you a week or so ago, whilst hunting down video clips to use with a Spanish student of mine. I wanted a voice different from my own (which is very 'Queen's English) but not as 'different' as an American English speaker might have. My student appreciated your help with pronouncing "th' sounds in English .. and we both appreciate a third voice in the classroom ! :-)
@roxie54365 Glad to hear it! These videos were done 3 years ago. Feel free to check out my international channel @ PrivateEnglishPortal There are three videos that you might enjoy: Peppy 27 - Steve in Brazil, Peppy 28 - The Funny Honeymoon and Parallel 1 - Serena, The Woman in the Mirror
Okay, I just watched the video again and, right at the beginning of your explanation, you talk about how we will often hear the construction "do you got". My earlier comment simply pointed to the fact that this is an American English construction ... I doubt you would ever hear it coming from a Brit ! :-) .. You've misquoted from my message .. my sentence doesn't read "Who uses "do you got in British English" ... simply "Who uses do you got?" .. Answer: some Americans. :-)
@PrivateEnglishPortal :-) Yes, the dots were just the gap between the first sentence and the second. So, "In British English " was part of the second sentence, not the first.
As for Coronation Street ... : " 'Ave you got ?" surely ? OR : "Do you 'ave", perhaps ! ... Aaah ! ... maybe : "ain't yer got ?" ........ But we digress ! :-)
@Inglesonline .. Just had an interesting thought re "got" and "gotten" and am not sure whether you cover it anywhere ? I've only ever heard "gotten" used by Americans (and now in your video, so assume it's used by Canadians too) Do you have any explanation/suggestion for how that came about ? It seems that it can sometimes be used in place of the British "got" or "had" ? : " He's gotten really good at that" (got) AND : I've gotten a lot of letters on the topic" (had) Confusing !
@roxie54365 Good one! Gotten has traditionally been archaic for you guys. In Canada, like 007, we use both: get got got (UK/Canada) vs get got gotten(US/Canada) I think I mention this somewhere in Peppy 23-25.
" He's gotten really good at that" = he has gotten(become) ( present perfect = have/has + past participle) "I've gotten(received) a lot of letters on the topic" ( present perfect = have/has + past participle)
@PrivateEnglishPortal Hey, thanks ! That clears that one up ! .. Would have taken me a while to get there .. never having "gotten" used to the word "gotten", myself ! :-)
Nice lesson!thanks for it. and this part i didn't know yet using this terms. my level is intermediate and i have a test to do, so here i can learn more. i wish sucess to all of you of this channel! have a good week!
hello Steve, how are you??? I'm Luciana, an English teacher in Brazil! I have been giving classes to a public school in a project!!! It seens to be wonderful! I'd like them to be part of this globalization world so if they send you a card or a pen pal letter in order to practice their english, would you like to participate and answer them??? please, say yes, they'd be very happy!!!
Do not say "do you got" you will sound uneducated! Seriously... say "do you have" if you are in the states... maybe that is more acceptable in other english speaking places around the world. but not here...
hey man, I'm Brazilian and I'm in USA learning english. It's really nice what you've done here. It's good cause people who can't understand movies cause the actors speak a lot faster than you speak, now can start to learn how to understand every single word, so I think that in a few months, some of these people could start to understand movies cause they'd know how to match those words with their own knowledge. Anyway, I wanna congratulate you for the wonderful work that you've done here.
Can you believe that I have improved my English a lot with your videos , I am from Brazil and I speak Portuguese , spanish and now English.
Your videos are awesome . Obrigada (-_-) .
Nowadays I work at a hotel , It was hard I confess but I learned . Thank you .

1."Who uses "Do you got ?" !!! ... In British English", Where in the video do I say the British use 'do you got?' I never said that.
2. "Do you have ?" is considered more "correct" and "refined" ... "Have you got ?" more "common" and less educated"
have got = more used in the UK, have = more used in the US

@roxie54365 This could be, though I'd be curious to sit down and re-watch Coronation Street to see what might come out of that :)
"Who uses "Do you got ?" !!! ... In British English" ( was there something in between the dots? I couldn't find it!! )
