Take care of singular and plural nature of nouns or pronouns. Verb/helping verb requires to be adjusted accordingly.

Intrrogative sentences beginning with ‘wh’ word like What, Why, When etc. The question wordis retained in the beginning of the sentence. An interrogative sentence in the active voice remains an interrogative in the passive form. An imperative sentence is a sentence showing order, or request. So, accordingly, in the passive voice, we say:        

       

You are requested/ordered/advised + infinitive with ‘to’.

Sentences involving order/advise are preferably changed into passive by using the word ‘let’ or ‘shoul’. Please close the door. You are requested to close the door. Save your soul. You soul should be saved. Let your soul be saved. Do it. Let it be done. It should be done. In Some sentence has to be supplied according to the context while changing them into active form. The Thief was arrested. (by the pilice).

Preposition attached with the verbs in the active form continue to be attached with themevem in the passive form. Please listen to him. You are requested to listen him. He turned down my proposal. My proposal was turned down by him. In the case of a verb having two objects an active voice, either of them can be retained in the passive.

Active voice     Hari gave me an apple.

Passive voise   I was given an apple by hari.

Passive voise   An apple was given to me by hari.

Intransitive verbs do not have passive forms. I go to school. Go is intransitive verb. Sono Passive form. What is done, cannot be undone. What people do, they cannot undo.

Quasi passive verbs: The rose smells sweet. The rose is sweet when smelt. Quinine is bitter when tasted. Lemons taste sour. Lemons are sour when tasted.

With some verbs, preposition ‘by’ is not used. Like now (to), surprise (at) , annoy (with), contain (in), vex (with), please (with), displease (at), alarm (at), line (with), throng (with).

ACTIVE VOICE & PASSIVE VOICE

FORM OF VERB

There are two special forms for verb called voice:

1.      Active Voice

2.      Passive Voice

The Active Voice is the ‘Normal” voice. This is the voice that we used most of the time. You are probably already familiar with the active voice, the object receives the action of the verb

EXAMPLE:

Active Voice	Subject	Verb	Object
	Cats	eat	fish

                                  

The Passive Voice is usual. In the passive voice, the subject receives the action of the verb.

Passive Voice	Subeject	Verb	Object
	Fish	Are eaten	By Cats

The Object of the active verb becomes the subject of the passive voice.

EXAMPLE:

	Subject	Verb	Object
Active	Everybody	Drinks	Water
Passive	Water	Is drunk	By everybody

Here what I got from a woman:
1. Woman is sensitive so be careful of your words. You may think it's a joke but for woman, it probably be different things.
2. When woman is fussy, men would close their ears or pretend to sleep but actually, woman only wants to share their day to you,
3. When a woman is shouting, men usually complain but actually, she just want to tell you to feel that they don't feel comfortable. Men should be sensitive about what woman dislike
4.When a woman demand on a man, it doesn't mean she will always demand but she is trying to remind the man to be always aware about woman's need.
5. Woman doesn't need your promise. Just prove what have you said. You don't need to imitate. Just be yourself.

I dare to say : there is always a good woman behind the success of a man.

                                                                      YAWN (a regular verb and a noun)

A yawn is a reflex of simultaneous inhalation of air and stretching of the eardrums, followed by exhalation of breath. Pandiculation is the act of yawning and stretching simultaneously.

Yawning in adults occurs most often immediately before and after sleep, during tedious activities and as a result of its contagiousness, and is commonly associated with tiredness, stress, overwork, lack of stimulation and boredom, though studies show it may be linked to the cooling of the brain. In humans, yawning is often triggered by others yawning (e.g., seeing a person yawning, talking to someone on the phone who is yawning) and is a typical example of positive feedback. This "infectious" yawning has also been observed in chimpanzees, dogs, and can occur across species. Approximately 20 physiological reasons for yawning have been proposed by scholars, but there is little agreement about its main functions.

Dang Gedunai

     Long time ago in Riau, lived a kid named Dang Gedunai. He lived with his mother. Dang Gedunai was a stubborn kid. His mother was sad. Dang Gedunai was her only child but he never made her happy. One day, Dang Gedunai went to the river to catch some fish. “Mother, I want to go to the river. I want to go fishing,” said Dang Gedunai to his mother. “It’s cloudy outside. Rain will soon fall. Why don’t you just stay at home?” said his mother. As always Dang Gedunai ignored her. He then went to the river.

It was very cloudy when he arrived at the river. Soon it was drizzling, but Dang Gedunai was still busy fishing. Later rain fell down heavily. Dang Gedunai finally gave up. However right before he left, he saw something shining in the river. It was a very big egg. Dang Gedunai then brought the egg home.

His mother was surprised to see him brought a big egg. “What egg is that? Where did you find it?” she asked. “I found it in the river, Mother,” replied Dang Gedunai. “Be careful with the egg. It’s not yours. You should return it,” advised his mother. As always, Dang Gedunai ignored his mother’s advice. He planned to eat the egg even though his mother said not to.

In the morning, his mother was ready to go to the paddy field. Again, she advised Dang Gedunai to put the egg back to the river. Dang Gedunai did not say anything. When his mother left the house, he immediately boiled the egg. Then he ate it. It was so delicious. He was so full and suddenly he fell asleep. He had a dream. A giant dragon came to him in his dream. “Human, you stole my egg! For the punishment, you will become a dragon.”

     Dang Gedunai woke up with fear. He was sweating. He felt very thirsty. Later his mother went home. She saw her son panicking. “What happened?” she asked. “I don’t know, Mother. Suddenly I feel very thirsty. My throat is like burning,” said Dang Gedunai. His mother then gave him a glass of water. It’s not enough. He drank another glass, and then another glass until there was not any water left in the house. His mother told him to go the pond. Dang Gedunai drank all the water until the pond was dried. But it was not enough. Then they went to the river.

Again it was not enough. Dang Gedunai knew his dream would come true. He would become a dragon. “Mother, please forgive me. I ignored you. I ate the egg. It was a dragon’s egg. I will change to a dragon. I cannot live with you anymore. I will live in the sea. If you see big waves in the sea, that means I’m eating. But if the waves are calmed, then it means I’m sleeping,” said Dang Gedunai.

Then Dang Gedunai left his mother. He headed for the sea. His mother couldn’t do anything to stop him. She just cried. Until now fishermen don’t want to go fishing in the sea when the waves are big. They know that the dragon is eating. They just wait until the dragon is finished eating and the waves are calmed.***
