In this episode we're going to help you with the causative passive. Más podcasts para mejorar tu ingles en: http://www.inglespodcast.com/ More podcasts to improve your English at: http://www.inglespodcast.com/ Listener Feedback: email from Jaime from Alicante - Hi Reza and Craig. Thank you for the podcast. I listen every week. Please speak about the causative in English. I don’t understand when (I) have to use ‘get’ and when ‘have’? We spoke about the passive in general in episode 17 When did you get your hair cut? Reza didn’t cut his hair. Someone cut it for him. Causative - have/get + object + past participle He had/got his hair (object) cut (past participle) Change to the causative: When was the last time you had your photo taken? Will Reza ever finally get his flat done up (to do up - reformar)?

Questions you may hear We practised indirect questions with Nicola in episode 50 ( http://www.inglespodcast.com/2015/05/11/indirect-questions-and-travel-in-morocco-with-special-guest-nicola-airc50/ ) Do you know where the nearest petrol station is? Can you tell me how to get to the post office, please? Giving directions You’ll probably hear: Use connecting words: Other useful expressions: You’ll see a big tree/red building/petrol station on the left. It’s on + street name (eg. It’s on Oxford Street) Turn right at the next street Make sure that the other person understood your directions. Say: “Did you get all that?” If you don’t know the way You could ask in the shop The Argentinian cafe Dulce de Leche in Reza's area is 'a victim of its own success'
