Have Something Done


Have Something Done

Lihat kedua kalimat ini. Apa perbedaan maksud dari keduanya?
‘I cut my hair.’
‘I have my hair cut.’
‘I cut my hair.’ Berarti dia melakukanya sendiri
‘I have my hair cut.’  Berarti seseorang yang memotong rambutnya (dalam hal ini mungkin penata rambut)
Kita menggunakan ‘have something done’ untuk mengartikan orang lain telah melakukan sesuatu untuk kita
Grammar untuk ini sangat gampang :
Have + object + past participle
Mari kita lihat pada contoh lainya
‘We didn’t want to cook so we had a pizza delivered.’
‘I had my car washed at that new place by the station.’
‘I had my watch fixed.’
Kita juga bisa menggunakan ‘get’ (dalam kalimat inggris tidak resmi) menggantikan ‘had’ dan artinya tetap sama. Kalimat tersebut sekarang berubah menjadi
‘We didn’t want to cook so we got a pizza delivered.’
‘I got my car washed at that new place by the station.’
‘I got my watch fixed.’

FUTURE
‘I had my watch fixed.’ Menjelaskan kita tentang masa lampau.
‘I am going to have/get my watch fixed.’ Menjelaskan kita tentang masa depan/ yang akan terjadi
‘Going to’ menjelaskan pada kita tentang rencana yang telah di buat.
Kita menggunakan ‘Will’ untuk sesuatu yang hanya sudah kita putuskan
‘I just noticed how dirty my suit is. I will have/get it cleaned soon.’

QUESTIONS
Bayangkan jika kamu menyukai potongan rambut baru temanmu. Kamu harus menanyakanya:
‘Where did you have/ get your hair cut?’
Mungkina kamu baru sja pindah ke kota yang baru dan kamu memutuskan inilah waktunya potong rambut, kamu bias bertanya:
‘Wher can I have/ get my hair cut?’
