Passive: other forms

Other structures that have passive characteristics are the get-passive and get/have something done:

The windows got broken. (Someone broke the windows.)

He’sgetting his hair coloured. (Someone is colouring his hair.)

We had our wooden floors painted. (Someone painted our wooden floors.)

We use these structures more commonly in speaking. They are similar to the passive because the agent of the action is not the subject.
