causative have vs present perfect

CAUSATIVE HAVE VS PRESENT PERFECT

The  causative means that someone other than ourselves does something for us. Therefore, we usually make an arrangement with a professional to do to it. Maybe it’s difficult, impossible or we simply don’t want to do it.

a)     She’s having her house painted.

b)    We’ve had the carpets cleaned.

c)     They’ll be having their dinner served at half past eight.

d)    We’ve been having our garden remodeled.

2)    If we want to know who did the action, we can use the by agent.

a)     He’s having his tattoo done by one of the best experts in the city.

b)    Every Saturday we have our car cleaned by a local lad in the village.

c)     She had had her nails done before her hair was cut by Sassoon.

d)    They’ll have had their meal served by the time we arrive.

3)    We also use the causative form to talk about bad experiences or mishaps.

a)     They’ve had their suitcases stolen at the airport.

b)    We’ve had our electricity cut off all day.

c)     I had my car lights smashed by vandals.

d)    He had his garden destroyed by the storm.

4)    There are three verbs we shall use in causative; HAVE, GET & MAKE. Let’s compare the difference.

a)     He has the lawn mown every weekend by his son. (He does not do it.)

HAVE + OBJECT + PAST PARTICIPLE

b)    He got his son to mow the lawn for him. (He persuaded his son to do it for him.)

GET + OBJECT + TO INFINITIVE

c)     He got the lawn mown by his son. (He asked him to do it for him.)

GET + OBJECT + PAST PARTICIPLE

d)    He made his son mow the lawn. (He insisted or ordered his son do it.)

MAKE + OBJECT + BARE INFINITIVE

5)    Although HAVE and MAKE give the impression that someone causes an action to be done by a third person, you might have noticed that there is a difference between the two.

a)     She has her son’s bedroom cleaned.

b)    She made her son clean his bedroom.

c)     They always get their homework done on time.

d)    The teacher always makes them do their homework.

6)    GET is considered more informal and we tend to use it in spoken English. We shall also use GET when the subject does the action.

a)     They always get their homework done on time.

b)    He got the lawn mown before lunch.

c)     I got all the ingredients prepared before cooking the paella.

d)    You had better get organized or you’ll be lat
