Note that the English phrases "to let someone do something" and "to make someone do something" both translate into Bavarian as jemand wås måcha låssn. In order to avoid ambiguity, "to let" can be expressed as jemandem erlaubn, wås z'måcha or zualåssn, dass jemand wås måcht, while "to make" can be expressed as jemand dazua bringa, wås z'måcha or dafia suagn, dass jemand wås måcht.
In perfect tenses, låssn + infinitive takes a double-infinitive construction, i.e. both verbs are in the infinitive: I håb ma d'Hoar schneidn låssn. (“I’ve had my hair cut.”).
