Had in French

Answer 1

Had is usually in passé composé but it may be in imparfait

i had= j'ai eu

you had= tu as eu

he/she had= il/elle a eu

we had= nous avons eu

you had (plural/formal)= vous avez eu

they had= ils ont eu

Passé Composé is used to describe what happened. Imparfait is used to described how things were or using physical and moral descriptions.

Example: J'ai eu un verre d'eau chez Natalie.

That means: I had a glass of water at Natalie's house. That is what happened: I had it.

BUT for Imparfait....

Example: Quand j'avais 4 ans, mon chien a mangé le poisson.

That means: When I was 4 years old, my dog ate the fish. That how it was when I was four years old.

Answer 2

"Had" in French can be translated as "avait" for the singular form (il/elle/ on avait) or "avaient" for the plural form (ils/elles avaient).
