Hello there,
I know the expression 'to be in luck' and 'to be lucky' but I wonder whether it is possible to say "to have luck"?
Here is some context:
I've won 10 000 euros in the lottery! Wow! You have luck!
Personally, this expression makes me cringe, but I might be wrong.
I've seen "to have the luck to do", though.
Context:
I had the luck to run into my former maths teacher (a somewhat ironic statement here)
And I've also heard "I have no luck at all". Is it possible to say "have luck" without anything in between?
Thank you very much for your kind help!
