OBSERVAÇÃO:
Algumas vezes, have something done possui um significado diferente, dependendo do sentido do verbo. Por exemplo:
Paul and Karen had all their money stolen while they were on holiday.
Nesta oração, não usamos usamos a estrutura have something done para dizer que alguém fez algo a nosso pedido ou em nosso favor. 'They had all their money stolen' significa apenas 'All their money was stolen from them'.
Com este significado, usamos have something done para dizer que algo acontece a alguém ou aos seus pertences. Geralmente o que acontece não é bom:
Gary had his nose broken in a fight.
Have you ever had your passport stolen?
GET SOMETHING DONE
Podemos usar get something done no lugar de have something done (principalmente em linguagem falada e informal.):
When are you going to get the roof repaired?
I think you should get your hair cut really short.
I got my bike fixed yesterday.
