In British English the above would be considered incorrect. However, both forms are generally accepted in standard American English. Other
differences involving the use of the present perfect in British English and the simple past in American English include already, just and yet. British English:
I've already seen that film.
American English:
I've already seen that film. OR I already saw that film.
There are two forms to express possession in English: “Have” or “Have got”.
