Change the voice:

উত্তরঃ Honey was sweet when it was tasted.

This is a special case of voice change where the active voice uses a verb of sensation (like taste, smell, feel, look, sound) followed by an adjective, rather than an object. In such sentences, the passive voice is formed differently to maintain the meaning and grammatical structure.

The general rule for changing the voice of sentences like "Subject + Verb (sensation) + Adjective" is:

        
  • Subject + be verb (according to tense) + Adjective + when/if + pronoun (referring to the subject) + be verb + past participle of the original verb.

In the given sentence, "Honey tasted sweet":

        
  • Subject: Honey
  •     
  • Verb of sensation: tasted (Past Simple)
  •     
  • Adjective: sweet

Following the rule, the passive voice becomes "Honey was sweet when it was tasted." Here, 'was' is the appropriate 'be' verb for 'Honey' in the past tense, and 'tasted' is the past participle of the verb 'taste'. The phrase 'when it was tasted' clarifies the condition under which the honey was found to be sweet, effectively converting the active sense into a passive construction.

উত্তরঃ Let the door be shut.

To change the voice of an imperative sentence (a sentence that gives a command, request, or advice), different rules apply depending on its nature:

        
  • For simple commands or orders (transitive verbs): The passive voice is generally formed using the structure: Let + object + be + past participle (V3).
  •     
  • For commands expressing a clear order or instruction: The passive voice can also be formed using: You are ordered/commanded to + base form of the verb.
  •     
  • For requests: The passive voice is formed using: You are requested to + base form of the verb.
  •     
  • For advice: The passive voice is formed using: You are advised to + base form of the verb, or by using object + should be + past participle.

In the given sentence "Shut the door," it is a direct command. Therefore, the most common and direct passive transformation is "Let the door be shut." An alternative, while grammatically correct, is "You are ordered to shut the door," which emphasizes the implied subject "you."

উত্তরঃ A song was being sung by her.
To change the voice of a sentence from active to passive when it is in the Past Continuous Tense, the following structure is applied:
        
  • Identify the subject, verb, and object of the active sentence.
  •     
  • The object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.
  •     
  • Use the appropriate form of 'was/were' followed by 'being'.
  •     
  • Use the past participle (V3) form of the main verb.
  •     
  • Add 'by' followed by the original subject (in its objective case if it's a pronoun).
In the given sentence, "She was singing a song":
        
  • Subject: She
  •     
  • Verb: was singing (Past Continuous)
  •     
  • Object: a song
Applying the rules:
        
  • 'A song' becomes the new subject.
  •     
  • 'was being' is used as 'a song' is singular.
  •     
  • The past participle of 'sing' is 'sung'.
  •     
  • 'by her' completes the sentence, as 'her' is the objective case of 'she'.

উত্তরঃ By whom were you taught English?

This question requires changing an active voice interrogative sentence that begins with 'Who' into its passive voice equivalent. In such transformations, the subject 'Who' in the active voice invariably changes to 'By whom' in the passive voice.

The general rules for converting active voice 'Who' questions (specifically in the simple past tense) to passive voice are as follows:

        
  • The interrogative pronoun 'Who' (acting as the subject in the active voice) is replaced by 'By whom'.
  •     
  • The appropriate auxiliary verb (was/were for simple past) is chosen based on the number and person of the new subject (which was the object in the active voice).
  •     
  • The original object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.
  •     
  • The main verb is converted to its past participle form (V3).
  •     
  • If there is a remaining object (especially in sentences with both direct and indirect objects), it is placed after the past participle, sometimes preceded by a preposition like 'to' or 'for'.

In the sentence "Who taught you English?":

        
  • "Who" is the active subject.
  •     
  • "taught" is the simple past tense verb.
  •     
  • "you" is the indirect object.
  •     
  • "English" is the direct object.

When "you" (the indirect object) is made the subject of the passive voice, the structure follows: "By whom + were (auxiliary verb for 'you') + you (new subject) + taught (V3) + English (remaining direct object)?" This yields: "By whom were you taught English?"

An alternative correct passive form, using "English" (the direct object) as the new subject, would be: "By whom was English taught to you?" Both constructions are grammatically valid, but the former is often more commonly used when the indirect object is a pronoun.

উত্তরঃ The glass was not broken by the boy.

Voice refers to the form of a verb that indicates whether the subject of the sentence performs or receives the action. There are two main types of voice: Active Voice and Passive Voice.

        
  • Active Voice: The subject performs the action. (e.g., "The boy broke the glass.")
  •     
  • Passive Voice: The subject receives the action. The focus is on the action rather than the doer. (e.g., "The glass was broken by the boy.")

To change a sentence from Active Voice to Passive Voice, especially in the Simple Past Tense (negative form), follow these steps:

        
  1. Identify the object of the active sentence and make it the subject of the passive sentence.
  2.     
  3. Use the appropriate form of the verb "to be" in the past tense (was/were) corresponding to the new subject. Since the original sentence is negative, "not" will be placed after "was/were".
  4.     
  5. Use the past participle (V3) of the main verb.
  6.     
  7. Add "by" followed by the original subject of the active sentence (now the agent in the passive sentence), if necessary.

For the given sentence, "The boy did not break the glass":

        
  • Original Subject: The boy
  •     
  • Original Verb (Simple Past Negative): did not break
  •     
  • Original Object: the glass

Applying the rules:

        
  1. The object "the glass" becomes the new subject.
  2.     
  3. For "the glass" (singular), use "was". Since it's negative, it becomes "was not".
  4.     
  5. The past participle of "break" is "broken".
  6.     
  7. Add "by the boy".

Thus, the passive voice is "The glass was not broken by the boy."
