To make (formal) with 使

Structure A + 使 + B + adjective/verb

使 (shǐ) is the more formal or written causative: A 使 B + (state/change) = "A makes B (feel or become…)". 这件事使我很难过 = "this made me very sad". It’s a relative of 让, but 使 sounds more abstract and literary, and is used mainly with feelings and changes, not concrete commands.

Examples

This made me very sad.
