2. U s a g e

1) They use have + object + past participle to talk about something which they arrange for someone else to do for them: I’m having a garage built at the moment.

Compare:

2) They can use have + object + past participle to express accidents or misfortunes. She had her car stolen. (= Her car was stolen.) He had his leg broken. (= His leg was broken.)

Get can be used instead of have in the causative: I had/got my tooth taken out yesterday. (Get is stronger in meaning than have and can be used to suggest difficulty). Get the door repaired, will you? He finally got the seats booked.

M ake/have + object + bare infinitive are used to express that someone causes someone else to do something, but their meaning is slightly different: He made Ann type the letter. (He insisted that Ann should type the letter.) He had Ann type the letter. (He asked Ann to type the letter.)

Get + object + to-infinitive is used to show that someone persuades someone else to do something: He got his mum to bake him a cake. (He persuaded his mum to bake him a cake.)
