Making Someone Do Something: -आव

Level 4Sounds Like paṛhāvala ā banāvala

Adding -आव makes a verb mean make someone do it.

How It Works

A causative has one more person in it. The person who makes it happen is the subject. The person who does it takes के.

It takes the usual endings: पढ़ावेली, पढ़ावत बाड़ें, पढ़वलस. The long vowel shortens in the past.

Some verbs change more; see खिआवल and पिआवल. For having a job done by a third person, see -वावल.
