Hey dear friends,
I �ve met a new structure to me. I don �t know whether you have ever heard but, Would any one explain � make myself heard �. I know �make sb do sth � and I �ve searched a few books and can �t find an explanation of this. If we consider �oneself � I don �t know a usage of �make sth done �
Thanks in advance
Regards
Burcu

Here are some things we can make ourselves do:
I don �t like exercising but I make myself do it because it �s good for me.
I don �t like vegetables but I make myself eat them so I stay healthy.
When riding your bike at night you should make yourself clearly visible to motorists by wearing a reflective vest s well as having your lights on.

Hi Burcu
If you have Swan �s Practical English Usage you will find an explanation in section 335.3.
