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.
