CAUSATIVE

Causative verb menunjukkan bahwa seseorang/sesuatu secara tidak langsung bertanggung jawab terhadap sebuah tindakan. Subjek tidak melakukan tindakan itu sendiri, tetapi justru menyebabkan seseorang/sesuatu yang lain melakukannya. Contoh:

- Yesterday I had my hair cut.

Pembicara pada kalimat diatas tidak memotong sendiri rambutnya, tetapi justru membuat orang lain melakukannya - Saya “menyebabkan” mereka memotong rambut saya.

Have

Have merupakan causative verb yang umum. Ketimbang melakukan sesuatu dengan diri kita sendiri, kita “menyuruh” orang yang lain untuk melakukannya. Bentuknya sebagai berikut:

Kata kerja “to have” + objek + past participle (verb 3). Contoh:

- I had my jacket cleaned yesterday.
- Did you have your computer fixed?

Terkadang kita menggunakan have sebagai causative verb ketika kita ingin melakukan tindakan oleh diri kita sendiri. Contoh:

- When will the report be ready? I’ll do it by tomorrow morning. >>
- When will the report be ready? I’ll have it done by tomorrow morning.

Dengan menggunakan causative, kalimat ke-dua diatas mengalihkan perhatian dari pelaku tindakan, dan lebih memberikan perhatian kepada tindakan yang sedang dilakukan. Ini kedengaran sopan dan profesional.

Get

Get sering digunakan ketimbang have. Contoh:

• I got my computer fixed - I had my computer fixed. Kedua kalimat ini maknanya sama.
• I got my jacket cleaned. - I had my jacket cleaned. Kedua kalimat ini maknanya sama.

Causative verbs sering digunakan bersama dengan pengalaman-pengalaman negatif. Pada situasi-situasi ini lebih umum menggunakan have. Contoh:

• I had my wallet stolen. (Saya sebenarnya tidak menyebabkan dompet saya dicuri - seseorang mencuri dompet saya dariku)
• She had her window smashed.

Let

Let digunakan untuk membolehkan seseorang melakukan sesuatu. Bentuknya adalah let + orang + verb. Contoh:

• John let me drive his new car.
• Will your parents let you go to the party?
• I don’t know if my boss will let me take the day off.

Make

Make digunakan untuk memaksa seseorang melakukan sesuatu. Bentuknya adalah make + orang + verb. Contoh:

• My teacher made me apologize for what I had said.
• Did somebody make you wear that ugly hat?
• She made her children do their homework.

ADJECTIVE ORDER

Apabila kita menggunakan lebih dari satu adjective (kata sifat) maka adjective-adjective tersebut harus digunakan dengan urutan yang benar. Urutan adjective tidak seluruhnya tetap tetapi urutannya yang umum adalah sebagai berikut:

Determiner – Opini – Ukuran – Usia – Bentuk – Warna – Asal-usul – Material -> Kata benda

Determiner adalah kata seperti a, an, the, this, that. Kata-kata ini juga merupakan jenis adjective.

Contoh:

• a famous, old painting
• a big, round table
• an American, cotton shirt

Adjective yang merupakan opini ditempatkan sebelum adjective yang merupakan fakta. Contoh:

• “A long, dark tunnel” atau “A long dark tunnel” keduanya dapat dipakai.

Dengan dua atau lebih adjective warna, digunakan and. Contoh:

• She’s got a black and white kitten.

Dua adjective selain warna tidak menggunakan and. Contoh:

• She’s got a little, black kitten.

Kalimat “She’s got a little and black kitten” tidak benar

URUTAN ADJEKTIVE YANG BENAR:

1. Determiner or article 
   • Determiners e.g. this, that, these, those, my, mine, your, yours, him, his, her, hers, they, their, Sam's ; or
   • Articles - a, an, the
      
2. Opinion adjective
   e.g. polite, fun, cute, difficult, hard-working
