be done
be done with + noun phrase
get + noun phrase + done
用法筆記
Cannot be placed before a noun — you cannot say "a done project" in this sense. The pattern be done with + noun phrase is very common in conversation for stating that you have finished using something (e.g., "I'm done with the scissors"). The causative get something done implies arranging for someone else to do the work. Distinguish from sense 3 (AGREED & CERTAIN), where done can appear before a noun: "a done deal."

文法句型
be done
a done deal
用法筆記
Unlike the FINISHED sense (sense 1), this sense CAN appear before a noun in the fixed phrase a done deal. The phrase it's done in this sense carries a tone of finality and satisfaction — not just 'completed' but 'settled beyond dispute.' Common in business and casual contexts, less so in formal legal writing.
