Hey guys it’s Michael here from Happy English and I help people speak English better.

It’s almost Halloween, and like most everything else, because of COVID-19, there probably won’t be any trick or treaters this year. The only way we’re going to get away from this nighmare is to keep those masks up and be sure to social distance. Together, we can defeat this monster!

Today, I want to look at a topic that a lot of English textbooks talk about, but not with enough detail. I’m talking about using GET and HAVE in the causative. Are you ready? Let’s check it out!

Here are the example sentences. To get the details of this English lesson, you need to listen to the podcast or check the transcript for the details.
