The Causative.




The causative:

   - You use the causative when you have someone do something for you.

   A) Active:
          "Sam made her boyfriend cut his hair"
   B) Passive:
            "Bill had his house painted"

*Notice the difference in Spanish :
I'm cutting my hair = Me estoy cortando el pelo (me lo estoy cortando yo misma)
I'm having my hair cut = Me están cortando el pelo (un profesional me está cortando el pelo)
