[Grammar] Usage of "Get" in "Causative Sentences".

[shahjehansoomro]

Which one of the following sentences is correct as causative sentence in present tense?

# He get the letter written by me.
or
# He gets the letter written by me.

 

[SoothingDave]

It's simple present tense. He gets.

 

[MikeNewYork]

I agree with Dave about the verb, but the sentence is awkward.

He gets my letter. He gets the letter I wrote.

I agree with Dave about the verb, but the sentence is awkward.

He gets my letter. He gets the letter I wrote.

Hello, Mike.:-D

Please let me ask a question.

Can't "He gets the letter written by me." be interpreted as "He gets me to write the letter"?

(The OP seems to be interested in "causative" structures.)

 

[MikeNewYork]

Possibly, but that would be very odd. That would be phrased "He gets me to write the letter."

 

[shahjehansoomro]

Yes we can write sentences as below:

He gets me to write the letter.
He causes me to write the letter.
He makes me write the letter.

 

[Tdol]

He causes me to write the letter

This is not a natural sentence.

 

[tzfujimino]

shahjehansoomro is the OP.
