XiniNumber 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. | | |
13 July 2007 05:19 | | | Oh - sorry about the misunderstanding. "I'll have him call you" is what we would say. I changed it. | | |

XiniNumber of messages: 1655 | Ok, but note that "him" is not mentioned in the original text: it's kind of passive form. | | |
13 July 2007 18:16 | | | But it's implied. I think we're safe. We don't say "I'll have you called" in English. |
