You will learn how English shows causing, arranging, allowing, or persuading an action.
The key question is: Who does the action, and who causes or arranges it?
The main rule to remember is: Causative verbs such as have, get, make, and let use different verb patterns.
You will study have something done, make someone do, let someone do, and get someone to do.
By the end, you should be able to use causative patterns without mixing the verb forms.
