Learn to Use ACTIVE and PASSIVE VOICE | Advanced Grammar Lesson

ABOUT THE LESSON 📚
I get questions all the time about changing sentences from active to passive. So in this lesson, we'll explore the differences between active and passive voice, as well as talk about how and when to use these sentences. And of course, no lesson is complete without practicing what we've learned, and you'll get to change some sentences from active to passive.

It's rare to see a gammar lesson here but I'm lucky because you explain the rule I struggle with it.
Thank you so much! Your channel is my favorite 🙂

Thank you so much. 'shut the door' active voice.

We have exam in a month perhaps on 11, the paper is going to be easy as they said and as i know. The reason why I learn grammar in depth is because I love it, to learn something informative. And it would be great to have a proper hold on a language.

I admire the way you teach. Its easier to understand. Your channel has been so much helpful for learning english grammar and vocabulary too.

Thank you and may you achieve milestones. ♥️♥️♥️

[maanka]

I want to ask you one question. When you said active voice "we do not allow talking " why did you say Passive voice " Talking does not allowed"
I will wait your answer. Thanks my Teacher.

It's hard to find 🔍this kinda lessons in this platform so thank you so much dear Teacher 😍

[vlshwasgatne]

Dear wes,
The concept of the transforming active voice into passive voice is crytal clear now .I think passive form is preferred to sound polite, to emphacise action & when it is understood .
I think for business purpose, we use active voice to give offers . e.g. we offer 5 % discount . But we want to remain polite & neutral we prefer passive form .e.g. The delayed action is immensely regretted . Thank you for this enlightening lesson .
