REVISION
WEEK 11
EXAMINATION
Week 1
Topic: Diphthongs
Grammar: Verb (introduction to active and passive voice)
Active and passive voice concerns the subject of the sentence. If the subject is active with respect to verbal action it is called active voice otherwise when the subject seems less important than the verb it is passive voice. Now, look at the following examples.
1. He is observing the situation.
2. It was observed that the situation was quite bad. Now you see in the first example (1) the subject (he) is actively participating in verbal action (observation) whereas in the second example (2) it seems that the observation is more important than observer and that is why there is just no hint of the observer in a sentence, hence it is passive voice. All the examples in the tenses section are the examples of active voice where the subject seems important and active.
