Overview
have something done और get something done, इसी उन्नत स्तर का एक उत्कृष्ट उदाहरण है। यह केवल 'Passive Voice' का एक विकल्प नहीं है, बल्कि यह जिम्मेदारी, एजेंसी (agency), और सामाजिक संदर्भों को व्यक्त करने का एक परिष्कृत तरीका है।have या get जैसे शब्दों का सहारा लेकर एक पूरी संरचना (structure) तैयार करनी पड़ती है।- Hindi: हम क्रिया का रूप बदलते हैं। (करना → कराना → करवाना)
- English: हम
have/getके साथObjectऔरPast Participle (V3)का एक संयोजन (combination) उपयोग करते हैं।
I had my car repaired, तो व्याकरणिक रूप से I (विषय) ने मरम्मत नहीं की। मरम्मत 'Mechanic' ने की, जो इस वाक्य में अदृश्य है। आपका काम केवल उस सेवा का प्रबंध करना था।have और get का चुनाव भी महत्वपूर्ण है। have का प्रयोग अक्सर उन सेवाओं के लिए होता है जो 'Routine' या 'Professional' होती हैं, जहाँ एक औपचारिक व्यवस्था (formal arrangement) होती है। इसके विपरीत, get का प्रयोग थोड़ा अधिक अनौपचारिक (informal) हो सकता है और यह अक्सर इस बात पर जोर देता है कि काम को पूरा करने में कुछ प्रयास, कठिनाई या अनुनय (persuasion) की आवश्यकता थी।I had my house painted. (मैंने घर पुतवा लिया - एक सामान्य सेवा)।I finally got my house painted. (आखिरकार मैंने घर पुतवा ही लिया - इसमें थोड़ा संघर्ष या लंबा इंतज़ार झलकता है)।Subject + have/get (conjugated) + Object + Past Participle (V3)have या get को काल (Tense) के अनुसार बदला जाता है, लेकिन मुख्य क्रिया (Main Verb) हमेशा अपनी तीसरी अवस्था (Past Participle) में ही रहती है।have | Example Sentence |Subject + have + Object + V3 | I have my eyes checked every year. |Subject + am/is/are having + Object + V3 | She is having her kitchen renovated. |Subject + had + Object + V3 | We had our garden landscaped last month. |Subject + have/has had + Object + V3 | They have had their visas approved. |Subject + will have + Object + V3 | I will have the documents delivered to you. |Subject + must/should have + Object + V3 | You should have your cholesterol tested. |- 1V3 का अनिवार्य होना: चाहे आप
haveका प्रयोग करें याgetका, जो काम किया जा रहा है वह हमेशाPast Participle(जैसे:cleaned,fixed,written,cut) में होगा। - 2Object की जगह: 'Object' हमेशा
have/getऔरV3के बीच में आएगा। हिंदी में हम अक्सर कहते हैं «मैंने कटवाए बाल,» लेकिन English में क्रम होगा:I had(Causative Verb) +my hair(Object) +cut(V3).
I'm having my suits dry-cleaned for the wedding.(शादी के लिए कपड़े ड्राई-क्लीन करवा रहा हूँ।)We need to have the office air-conditioners serviced before summer.(गर्मियों से पहले ऑफिस के AC की सर्विस करवानी होगी।)
He had his phone stolen in the crowded market.(भीड़भाड़ वाले बाज़ार में उसका फोन चोरी हो गया।)They had their flight cancelled at the last minute.(आखिरी समय पर उनकी फ्लाइट कैंसिल हो गई।)
have का अर्थ 'अनुभव करना' है, 'आयोजित करना' नहीं।*get):It took a lot of follow-up, but I finally got the refund processed.(बहुत पीछे पड़ना पड़ा, लेकिन आखिरकार रिफंड प्रोसेस करवा ही लिया।)Can you get this old computer started somehow?(क्या तुम किसी तरह इस पुराने कंप्यूटर को चालू करवा सकते हो?)
Get these reports printed and bound by 5 PM.(शाम 5 बजे तक ये रिपोर्ट प्रिंट और बाइंड करवा लो।)I'll have my assistant call you with the details.(मैं अपने असिस्टेंट से कहकर आपको विवरण भिजवा दूँगा - *यह Active Causative है, जिसे हम आगे समझेंगे*।)
I am cutting my hairError):
I am cutting my hair.- गलती:
I am cutting my hair.(इसका मतलब है कि आप खुद कैंची लेकर अपने बाल काट रहे हैं।) - सही:
I am having my hair cut.(कोई और काट रहा है, आपने व्यवस्था की है।)
V1 या ing में रखने की कोशिश करते हैं।- गलती:
I had the mechanic repair my car.(यह सही है, लेकिन यह 'Active Causative' है।) - गलती:
I had my car repair.याI had my car repairing. - सही:
I had my car repaired.(Object के बाद हमेशा V3 ही आएगा।)
get something done (Passive) का उपयोग करते हैं, तो to की ज़रूरत नहीं होती। to केवल तब आता है जब हम व्यक्ति का नाम लें (Active)।- गलती:
I got my room to cleaned. - सही:
I got my room cleaned. - Active रूप:
I got the servant to clean my room.
have बेहतर होता है। Get थोड़ा 'Action-oriented' लगता है।have/get something done की तुलना अन्य समान दिखने वाली संरचनाओं से करेंगे ताकि आप C2 स्तर की स्पष्टता प्राप्त कर सकें।I repaired the tap. (मैंने नल ठीक किया।) |The tap was repaired. (नल ठीक किया गया। - किसने किया, पता नहीं) |I had the tap repaired. (मैंने नल ठीक करवाया। - मैकेनिक से) |I had the plumber repair the tap. (मैंने प्लंबर से नल ठीक कराया।) |Have someone do something(बिनाtoके): यह तब उपयोग होता है जब आप किसी को निर्देश देते हैं या वह उनका काम है (जैसे बॉस कर्मचारी को या ग्राहक दुकानदार को)।Get someone to do something(toके साथ): इसमें अक्सर 'Persuasion' या 'Convincing' (मनाना या राजी करना) का भाव होता है।
I had the waiter bring some water.(स्वाभाविक सेवा)I finally got my brother to lend me his car.(काफी मिन्नतें करने के बाद उसने कार दी)
have something done में by का प्रयोग कर सकता हूँ?by + agent जोड़ सकते हैं। जैसे: I had my portrait painted by a famous artist. लेकिन आमतौर पर इस संरचना का उद्देश्य ही 'काम करने वाले' को गौण (secondary) रखना होता है।have something done और get something done में से कौन सा बेहतर है?have अधिक 'Neutral' और 'Professional' है। get अधिक 'Dynamic' है और अक्सर 'कठिनाई से प्राप्त सफलता' का संकेत देता है। C2 स्तर पर, आपको संदर्भ के अनुसार चुनाव करना चाहिए।I had my hair cut में cut का रूप बदलता है?cut की तीनों अवस्थाएं (cut-cut-cut) समान होती हैं। लेकिन I had my car fixed में fixed स्पष्ट रूप से V3 है। यह हमेशा V3 ही रहेगा।I had my heart broken एक बहुत ही सामान्य साहित्यिक और बोलचाल का उदाहरण है।Active), काम बस हो रहा है (Passive), या आप उसे करवा रहे हैं (Causative)। यही वह सूक्ष्म अंतर है जो एक सामान्य वक्ता और एक 'Expert' वक्ता के बीच होता है।Conjugating 'Have something done'

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल (8)
Yes, `get` is very common in spoken English. It's slightly more informal and often implies that the task was difficult to arrange.
The first is causative (someone else did it). The second is Past Perfect (you did it yourself before another past event).
Usually, but not always. It can be a misfortune (e.g., `I had my window broken`) or a favor.
Absolutely. `I will have my house painted next year` is perfectly correct.
Because `cut` is an irregular verb. The past participle (V3) of cut is `cut`.
Yes, you can add `by [person]` at the end, e.g., `I had my hair cut by a famous stylist`.
Yes, it is very common in informal English.
No, `make` follows a different pattern: `make someone do something`. It is not used in the passive causative structure.
