Bethy, your English prof uses 'gotten'???? <eg>
I would imagine so. "Gotten" is the preferred form in American English although "got" is permissible. "I have got" sounds as weird to most of us as "I have gotten" sounds to Canadians, Australians, and the British. smile I think it's a throwback to past participles ending in -en like "chosen".
