Sure. Another analogy without the phrasal verb might be &quot;give&quot;, which has an indirect object:<p>John has given a date.  (he stated when something would happen, or he donated a fruit to someone)<p>John was given a date.  (he received a fruit as a gift)<p>John was given by a date.  (most likely interpretation is that someone&#x27;s romantic partner, maybe John&#x27;s, nominated John for some position or role)
