To make someone do something
When you make someone do something, you force or push someone to do something. Example sentences: 1. My parents made me do my homework before they let me out. 2. Too much stress can make people do strange things. 3. If the police think that you are drunk, they will make you get out of the car and walk in a straight line. 4. The bank robbers made everyone lie down. Watch this video and try and use the expression, ‘he made me do it’ in a sentence of your own.
