The letter H.

2006-09-19 08:42:58 · answer #1 · answered by Dave 4 · 1 1

They are two different words and if the 'h' is not said, sound the same.

'As' is a comparative, for example As big as a building.

'Has' is the present participle of the verb 'to have' for example 'He has a building named after him. It is as tall as a skyscraper.'

A sentence containing the two words may help to explain, for example: "As I support Manchester United, I am very please that Wayne Rooney has returned from injury".

(For the record, I don't support Manchester United, so please don't give me grief thinking that I do!)

HAS - derived from HAVE - when eg you possess something. I have, you have, s/he has. Or when somebody has done something.

AS - is a comparative. Eg she is as good as gold.
