Use of "have to," "has to," and "had to

 Use of "have to," "has to," and "had to

Use of "have to," "has to," and "had to," it helps to know that they express obligation, necessity, or compulsion (something that is necessary or required).

In Nepali, they generally translate to:

• "have to / has to" = "गर्नु पर्छ" (garnu parcha) or "गर्नु छ" (garnu cha) – meaning must / need to.
• "had to" = "गर्नु पर्यो" (garnu paryo) or "गर्नु पर्थ्यो" (garnu parthyo) – meaning had to do it (past).

---

The Golden Rule (Subject-Verb Agreement)

Just like have/has, the rule depends on the subject:

Subject (विषय)Present (हाल) = गर्नु पर्छ    Past (विगत) = गर्नु पर्यो
I / You / We / They	have to	had to
He / She / It / Singular	has to	had to

Important Note: In negative sentences, we use "don't/doesn't have to" (meaning "not necessary" - गर्नु पर्दैन) and "didn't have to" (meaning "was not necessary in the past").
