Knowing whether got or gotten is correct can be tricky because American and British speakers use these words differently, and both words often combine with โhave,โ but in different contexts.
Quillbotโs free Grammar Checker will instantly tell you whether โgotโ or โgottenโ is the word you need for your specific context in your variety of English.
Gotten is the past participle of the verb โgetโ in American English (e.g., โIโve gotten a lot of questions about that recentlyโ).
Got is also part of the phrase โhave gotโโwhich is an informal way of saying โhaveโ (e.g., โIโve got some questions for youโ).
Have got to is a phrasal modal verb (aka โsemi-modal verbโ) meaning โhave toโ/โmustโ (e.g., โIโve got to prepare some questions for the quizโ)
