LJ says we have white smoke.

Habemus papam.

Habemus = we have. Papam should be obvious.

'We have', 'we've got', not so different.

'We've got', 'we got'…

Oh no.

Please don't tell me somebody in the Vatican just got a piece of paper from where the cardinals have been locked up, read the paper, slammed his hand down on a bell, and screamed "WE GOT ONE!" in Latin.

Habemus = we have.
habeo = I have.

At least none of them picked up the phone and yelled "Hey, Fred, we got us a live one!"
