Adjectives give extra information about nouns. They don’t have genre or number but they change their form to construct the comparative or the superalive. The difficulty of adjetives lies on the dealing with the sequence of groups of them.
Some common suffixes that occur with adjectives are:
-able, -ible |
reasonable |
acceptable |
incredibly |
terrible |
-al, -ial |
critical |
ideal |
social |
official |
-ed |

VOICE
The “voice” of a verb indicates whether the subject of the sentence is doing or receiving the action.
ACTIVE VOICE
If a verb is in the active voice, the person, animal, or thing who or which performs the action is the subject of the verb.
The subject of an active clause says who or what does what the verb expresses.
- Active voice: The monkey ate the banana (doing)
PASSIVE VOICE
In the passive voice, the person, animal, or thing who or which is affected by the action is the subject of the verb.
The subject of a passive clause does not perform the action expressed by the verb but is affected by it.
- Passive voice: The banana was eaten by the monkey (receiving)
STEP BY STEP GRAMMAR STRUCTURE
TO BE + V3
To change an active sentence into a passive sentence we use the verb TO BE as an auxiliary:
The monkey ate the banana → The banana WAS eaten by the monkey
The TENSE of the verb in the active sentence is ‘given’ to the auxiliary verb:
ATE (Past Simple) → WAS (Past Simple)
The main verb appears after the auxiliary, always in the Past Participle:
The banana was EATEN by the monkey
THE AGENT
If the subject of the active sentence is relevant, it should be reflected in the passive sentence after the preposition BY and it is called the agent. A pronoun is never relevant.
The banana was eaten BY the monkey
Active: They drove the car → Passive: The car was driven by THEM
