Grammar - Passive Voice

PASSIVE VOICE
Formula : Tobe (is/are, was/were, be, been, being) + V-3 (past participle)

Attention : When you change the sentences from active into passive, you should
put subject into object and vice versa.


Active Sentence : Amir buys a flower

Passive Sentence : A flower is bought by Amir

Example : She is invited to follow the meeting (present tense)
She was invited to attend the seminar (past tense)
She has been invited to carry out the tasks (present perfect)
She is being requested to sing a song (present continuous)
She will be called to have an interview (present future)
