No. To have has two functions in English:
1. A transitive verb, as in I have a copy of the book, but cannot find it.
2. An auxiliary verb used to from the present perfect, the pluperfect, and various other tenses, for example:
They have collected their tickets.
He had already finished cooking when I came home.
She had been standing there for an hour before anyone noticed her.
I think had been is a linking verb but I'm not sure about had on it's own

∙ 12y agoThe verb 'got' is the past tense of the verb 'get', an action verb, but it can be a linking verb. A linking verb is usually a form of the verb to be or become.
The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (My feet got wet. feet->wet).
In the sentence, 'Marvin got an A in math.', the object of the verb 'A' is not a form of Marvin.

Right..and wrong. By itself it typically does not function as a linking verb. It takes an object, not a compliment.
