 brother Do you have a brother? Yes, I have No I don't should i say: "yes, i do" and not"yes I have" what if I have 2 brothers, and the question asks if I have a brother, so should i answer No, I don't have a brother I have two It the question wrong. Is it better to put brother in the plural Do you have brother? |

| Re: brother dilodi83, please be more certain, it is hard to follow!  __________ If you're asked: Do you have a brother? Yes, I do(have a brother). Yes, I have(a brother). I have two(brothers). (I have a brother) (A/a)nd a sister. Now you can combine to get whatever you need...  Is it clear? |

| Re: brother Additionally: One canot predict whether you have one brother, or two, or a sister, or two, or five... So it is either ''Do you have a brother/sister?'', or ''Do you have any brothers/sisters/brothers or sisters?''. |
