I have had my partner do good things for people This is correct cos the 'had' shows its a past tense Its more like saying u made ur partner do good things for people 1 Like |

Colorado1: But both "I" and "partner" are subjects in the sentence, meaning that have, and not had which made it a present perfect tense, is the verb of I in the sentence, while partner is also a subject and the verb "do" cannot agree with it. |

Elder010:If you change 'have had' to ' have made', you'll get the right answer, which should be 'do' 1 Like |

Elder010: Non of the above sentences pass the message you intended to ask. You have had To have something or someone under your possession. You have heard To hear something with your ear. Have had/heard" present perfect tense My partner does" is not a correct complement of "I have had" Just imagine that someone under you is doing good to people or you heard someone doing good to people. I" concord with plural verb My partner" concord with singular verb If I should go with your statement as it was written. I have had my partner does good to people. But it should have been written as I heard my partner is going good to people Or I heard my partner does good to people. |
