hello!
how can we distinguish between it's (to be in the present simple ) and it's ( to have in the present simple )

[Karim-Rap-4-Life]

hello,
well it depends on the word that follows them and the meaning too
to be in the present simple is followed by ( a + noun / adjective)
to have in the present simple is followed by ( a + noun / verb + ing / verb (past participle {passive voice}

[medjide chrivati]
