Hi
Could anybody tell me in what context (HAD HAS, HAD HAVE AND HAD HAD)
these are used.
Thanks

"have" and "has" are present tense:
I have, you have, she has, he has, it has, they have
"have had" is a combination of two verbs: present tense "have" and its past perfect object "had" + _____, like this,
I have
had dinner. (I have
eaten dinner)
I have
had a bath. (I have
taken a bath)
"had had" is a combination of two verbs: past tense "had" and its object,
If I had
had a hammer . . . . (past conditional)
If I
had a hammer . . . . (present conditional)
"had has" and "had have" are not combinations in English. The opposite, "has had" and "have had", are combinations:
She has
had a cold for two weeks now. / She's
had a cold.
They have
had a cold for two weeks now. / They've
had a cold.
"has had" is for third person singular subjects (she, he, it), and "have had" is for the other persons and numbers (I, you, they).
"had have" isn't a combination in English.
