OMG!!! I feel so lucky to find your channel bro. I really like the way you speak and the way you explain the lessons, I think that's incredible, excellent job. If it's possible, I really want to make a request. Can you please make a complete explanation about "All the Phrasal Verbs". And then about all Idioms, Noun Clause, Adjective Clause, etc. Please teach us about everything we need to know about English so that we can use English excellently. With the quality of your explanation, I'm really sure your channel will grow dramatically. Thank you so much bro for all of your hard work. I hope you all the best.

[@englishspeaking360]

Yes, that's in the passive voice. 👍 Good example!

My friend is making the food, Active voice Passive voice, the food was maked by my friend

Excellent example! Only one small thing to change. Make is irregular and the past participle is made instead of maked. Keep up the good work! 🤩🇨🇦

[@ryanreyns]

Hi! 6:17 " The Germans make the best beer --> The best beer is made by the Germans". Shouldn't it use " are". Reffering to people? Exp: " Ryan writes books --> Books are written by Ryan". Thank you.

[@englishspeaking360]

Hello! In the example, the verb to be agrees with the subject of the sentence (the best beer), not with the object (the Germans). That's why IS is correct. However, one could also say "The best beerS are made by the Germans." Here, beers refers to various brands or varieties of beer. Does that make sense?

[@ryanreyns]

Yesterday, the doctor consulted my little child. My little child was consulted by the doctor Yesterday.

[@englishspeaking360]

You got the right idea but c9nsult is a challenging verb. The original sentence should be "My child consulted a doctor yesterday."

[@RabiaSarmad-f3k]

Several shots were fired Or Several shots were fired by someone

[@englishspeaking360]

Hello! Since we know that someone fired the shots, we don't need to add BY SOMEONE. However, if the person was mentioned, we would say, "Several shots were fired by the police." 🤩🎁🎅

[@RabiaSarmad-f3k]

@englishspeaking360 thank you

[@keizyone1862]

I'm a little confused, when we use" were" and when we use "was" in the Passive voice? 🤔

[@englishspeaking360]

Hello! In the passive voice, "was" and "were" are used depending on the subject and the tense of the sentence. General Rules: 1. Singular subjects take "was." 2. Plural subjects take "were." Examples: Present Simple: Active: "He eats the cake." Passive: "The cake is eaten by him." Past Simple: Singular: "The cake was eaten by him." Plural: "The cakes were eaten by them." In the past tense, you use: "Was" for singular subjects: Example: "The book was written by her." "Were" for plural subjects: Example: "The books were written by them." Both "was" and "were" are used to indicate the past tense in passive voice, but it depends on whether the subject is singular or plural.

[@shabeelbangash8807]

How can we change sentences like this . 1) He goes to school . 2) He has gone to the market.

[@englishspeaking360]

You can change sentences into the passive voice when the subject of the sentence is acted upon by the verb rather than performing the action itself. For example, "The cat chased the mouse" (active voice) can be changed to "The mouse was chased by the cat" (passive voice). "He goes to school" can be changed into the passive voice as "School is attended by him." However, the passive voice doesn't always work well with sentences like this, as it can sound awkward or unnatural.
