TO HAVE.
To have (got) means "to be the owner of something" whenever it works as main verb. In all the other cases, it is an auxiliary verb which helps other main verbs to form compound tenses usually with a past meaning.

got a car. (Tengo un coche.)

hermanos.)

got a big house. (Él tiene una casa grande.)
