HAVE SOMETHING DONE
GET SOMETHING DONE


The roof of Jill´s house was damaged in a storm, so she
arranged for somebody to repair it. Yesterday a workman
came and did the job.


JILL HAD THE ROOF REPAIRED YESTERDAY

JILL GOT THE ROOF REPAIRED YESTERDAY


Jill arranged for somebody else to repair the roof.
            She didn´t repair it herself
We use HAVE/GET SOMETHING DONE to say that we arrange
                    for somebody else to do something for us.


COMPARE:


- Jill repaired the roof.   (she repaired it herself)

- Jill had the roof repaired.   (she asked somebody else to repair it)
HAVE/GET       +   OBJECT      +   PAST PARTICIPLE



Jill           had             the roof           repaired       yesterday


Where       did you have       your hair            cut?


We          are having         the house           painted         now


How often   do you have        your car           serviced?
