Jan 27, 2017 at 0:03 comment added user11550 @Frank Perhaps you can turn your comments into an answer?
Jan 26, 2017 at 19:07 comment added Frank @cFreed - you are right - in the current form of (c), which has been edited after I made my initial comment. It used to be je vais laisser faire Pierre la vaisselle or something that didn't work like that. It's been edited since, I think. I would personally prefer je vais laisser Pierre faire la vaisselle.
Jan 26, 2017 at 18:53 comment added cFreed @Frank "The other 2 do not work": for me, only (d) doesn't work. But (c) is ok too, and rather common.
Jan 26, 2017 at 18:28 comment added m.raynal I definitly agree with Frank, it's a very common way to express "to have someone do".
Jan 25, 2017 at 15:27 comment added Frank @user11550 Yes but no - I mean it sounds a bit funny, but we are used to it, and it's the proper way of saying it, so it's ok.

Jan 25, 2017 at 8:31 comment added user10527 Yep, nothing strange in using two faire next to each other! As there is nothing strange with the two nous in Nous nous entraidons pour ce travail (although there is no grammatical link between faire faire and nous nous).
Jan 25, 2017 at 8:01 comment added jlliagre I confirm that that is completely normal!
Jan 25, 2017 at 5:31 comment added user11550 @Frank Thanks. Does two faires next to each other seem strange, or is it completely normal?
Jan 25, 2017 at 5:30 comment added Frank (a) and (d), yes. The other 2 do not work.
