How to Say ‘Would you have / Do you have’ in German

Hättest du

HET-test doo

[HET-test doo]

💬 Usage Tip: [du] takes the [du]-form of the verb, so it's [hättest du], not [hätten du]. Compare the formal version: [Hätten Sie nächste Woche Zeit?]

🇩🇪 In Germany: Use [du] only if that level is already established. In professional networking in Germany, many people stay with [Sie] unless the switch has been clearly offered.
