“drown someone” or “have someone drowned”?

@SW-User which means like “I will have you drowned your mother” ?

@Arukas3 "I will have you drown your mother." No -ed in this case as it is a future action. The focus is on the act of the drowning.

"I will have your mother drowned by you." - Uses the -ed because the future situation imagines the action is already done. The focus is after the drowning.

@ViciDraco thanks a lot! So when it’s me who drown the person, is it correct to say “do you want to have me drown you?” I already texted “do you want me to have you drowned?” to my friend, but this means differently or it doesn’t make sense?

@Arukas3

The first is a little awkward in construction. Simplify it to "Do you want me to drown you?" If this is meant to be a playful threat, try "Don't make me drown you!"

The second, that you already sent, implies that you are going to send someone else who is not you to drown them.

@ViciDraco thank you so much! It helps a lot. So if I meant “I don’t want to be a murderer myself, so I will make someone else do my dirty work and drown you.”, is the second one, which I have actually sent correct?

@Arukas3 Yes. Like a crime boss.

@ViciDraco tysm! Actually it helped me a lot and I became a little smarter ;)
