- Tom made me laugh/got me to laugh. Are both acceptable?
- The only common of her and me (???) is the language. (= the only thing we have in common) Is the first structure accepted by native speakers?
Please comment. Thank you. |

Both "Tom" expressions are acceptable.

Doesn't work as it is.
The only common denominator between her and me is the language, is OK though. |
