	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	Is it "we'll call you" or "I'll have him call you"?

	Xini Number of messages: 1655	It's rather impersonal it Italian. Could it be "you'll be called ASAP"? It sounded strange to my non-native ears.

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	Xini, you're not a native speaker of Italian? What is your first language?

	Xini Number of messages: 1655	I was saying that I was going to put "you'll be called as soon as possible" but I didnt because it sounded strange to my non-native-English ears. Literally it could be "i'll have you to be called"...don't know how to say... Is it right? I think (hope!!!) apple is on holydays, her last visit was a month ago.

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	Oh - sorry about the misunderstanding. "I'll have him call you" is what we would say. I changed it.

	Xini Number of messages: 1655	Ok, but note that "him" is not mentioned in the original text: it's kind of passive form.

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	But it's implied. I think we're safe. We don't say "I'll have you called" in English.
