I've a question based on two verbal tenses. To explain better what is the case, I'll create a hypothetical situation.
Lets suppose that we got in same place to make a registration or anything like that and the attendant starts a dialog, asking about a document. Based on the sentences above, What should be the best sentence? Would they be the same thing?
1) Have you brought the document?
or
2) do you bring the document?
Thanks everyone!

Hello there, well I can't say your examples are wrong, the first one makes sence to me I can't say the same about the second one though. I have some examples: 1- do you have the documents (with you)? 2- did you bring the documents? One more thing I noticed, I'm almost sure is grammatically incorrect when you said "I've a question" the correct way would be "I have a question". We don't abbreviate the word "have" when we're talking about owning something for example I can't say "I've a car" the correct way is "I have a car". We can only abbreviate the word "have" when we're using it as "present perfect" like "I have been here before", "I've been here before". I hope I've been of some help
