4 “Causative Verbs”
I.
Pengertian
Causative Verbs
Causative Verbs merupakan kata kerja
yang digunakan untuk menunjukkan pelaku (subject) tidak melakukan tindakan
melainkan ornag lain atau benda lain yang melakukannya. Causative verbs juga
bisa diartikan sebagai kata kerja yang membuat orang atau benda lain melakukan
atau menyebabkan sesuatu berubah. Contoh nya seperti di bawah ini :
His mother made him take his
medicine.
My English teacher had us give oral
reports.
Dari ke dua contoh di atas, pelaku utama kalimat tersebut
(his mother dan my english teacher) tidak melakukan tindakan langsung (take
medicine dan give oral report) melainkan meminta orang atau benda lain untuk
melakukan tindakan tersebut (him dan us).
