I've been trying to translate Touhou _doujinshi_ , when I came across this
sentence:

[![a man talks about youkai's
den](https://i.stack.imgur.com/dJLIN.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/dJLIN.png)

A man talks about events related to youkai's den down the road.

The first part of the sentence is:

> なんでも綺麗【きれい】な女【おんな】がたくさん出【で】てきて呑【の】めや歌【うた】えの大【だい】宴会【えんかい】

Meaning, I suppose, something like:

> “Lots of different beautiful women come out and have a big feast where they
> drink and sing”

And the second part is:

> でもあくる朝【あさ】には肥【こえ】だめに **浸【つ】からされてたって** よ

I don't get this 「浸からされてたって」 part at all. I thought, that maybe there was a
typo, and it should be 「浸かられてた って」. But, as far as I know, English translation
for 「浸かる」 is already in passive voice: _to be submerged; to be soaked_.

What is the meaning of 「浸からされてたって」?

question
verbs conjugations manga passive-voice causation
Unknown verb form (typo?) in manga
漬からされてた＝漬からされていた＝漬からせられていた

Verbs often have two causatives, one in ～す and one in ～せる. ～す is considered
more informal these days, but I think it's the original. So this is the past
of the passive causative form.

answer
I don't think this is the shortened version of the causative. The causative
would either be 浸からせる or 浸からす for the shortened form.

This should be the causative passive—浸からせられる, shortened as 浸からされる, which is
what is written in the manga. This is further described in [this imabi
article.](https://www.imabi.net/causativepassive.htm)

For example:

> 描く→描かせられる→描かされる  
>  To be made to draw.

> 浸かる→浸からせられる→浸からされる  
>  To be made to sink.
