Understanding Causative Verbs in English by manuint is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Causative verbs express causing an action to be performed by someone else rather than doing the action oneself. Examples of causative verbs are "have" and "make," which can be used to say things like "I had my hair cut" or "She made him do the dishes." Causative verbs are an alternative to the passive voice and express the idea of one person requiring or wanting another person to perform an action for them.
