After learning a little bit of a lot of languages, I felt I should get a good grasp on at least one foreign language, so I chose Spanish. Please help!

    Hi Marcos, "Don't have" and "haven't got" my keys are pretty much interchangeable. For my ear, "don't have" sounds a little bit nicer, and is perhaps more technically correct given that "haven't got" implies some sort of receipt of the keys. But, as I said, in everyday language, these are interchangeable, and no-one will wrinkle their nose if you use the "wrong" one. For me, I choose whichever one pops into my head, or seems to fit into the flow of the language better at the time. So just go with the one you feel is more comfortable!

    Hi Harry, I guess you're reading something about the Italian mafia? From my limited knowledge, the 'capo' is a faction or division leader (the captain) - like the manager in a business, and a sub-capo would be a division under this. Hope this helps.

    Hi Naoki, The semi-colon is indeed for separating two phrases that ordinarily could stand alone as sentences, but are so closely related that it makes sense to keep them together. We can also use the semi-colon as it is used in the sentence you provided above - when there is a list of items, but the items in the list require their own punctuation with commas, we use a semi-colon instead of a comma to denote where each list item ends. Hope this helps!
