Grammar usage notes
What seperates causative and causative-passive is that in causative-passive, the person being forced to do something is affected by it. For example.
父は車を洗わせた。 Dad made me wash the car.
父に車を洗わされて、いやでした。 Dad made me wash the car, and it was annoying.
If you didn't mind washing the car, you would use causative. But because you didn't want to wash the car, and were annoyed, you would use causative-passive.
父は車を洗わせた。 Dad made me wash the car.
父に車を洗わされて、いやでした。 Dad made me wash the car, and it was annoying.
If you didn't mind washing the car, you would use causative. But because you didn't want to wash the car, and were annoyed, you would use causative-passive.
With the causative passive, use が (or は) to mark the person being made to do something, に to mark the person who made them do it, and を for the thing they were made to do.
生徒たちは先生に宿題をさせられた。 The students were made to do their homework by their teacher.
Contrast with causative particle usage: が (or は) for the person who makes someone do something, and に for the person they make do it.
先生は生徒たちに宿題をさせた。 The teacher made the students do their homework.
生徒たちは先生に宿題をさせられた。 The students were made to do their homework by their teacher.
Contrast with causative particle usage: が (or は) for the person who makes someone do something, and に for the person they make do it.
先生は生徒たちに宿題をさせた。 The teacher made the students do their homework.
Is the drop in pitch after の normal? Does の always do that? Is the next word after it all low-pitch even if の follows a word that’s not accent-final?
