I see you now understand about the punctuation and spaces. You only fell back into the old habit on one. Well done. I know that this won’t be easy until you get used to it.

  9. The book will have been kept here by us
  10. The door is been shutted

cheer,
nuriz

Hi Nuriz,

You meed full stops at the end of all your sentences. Your understanding of changes to the passive tense seems to be pretty good on the whole. The mistakes you tend to make are with plurals, etc.
My corrections take account of the structure of the original questions.

  1. The apples is eaten by them <— Apples are eaten by them.
  2. An apples was eaten by Sam ← An apple was eaten by Sam.
  3. An apples have been eaten by us <–An apple has been eaten by us.
  4. An apples has been eaten by her ← Apples have been eaten by her.
  5. The news is being read by him ← News is read by him.
  6. A book was being read by her ← Books are read by her.
  7. London is a place that i had been visited ← London had been visited by me.
  8. The book will be kept here by us ← The books will be kept here by us.
  9. The book will have been kept here by us ← The books will have been kept here by us.
  10. The door is been shutted ← ‘Shut the door’ is tricky because it is a command. ‘Door be shut!’ is the passive response, even though that would not generally be used.

Thanks Beeesneees,

I’ll take attention about that… really appreciated :slight_smile:

I’ll try, please correct me! :slight_smile:

I was being confused at that time
most of my student are not happy when they are taught by Miss Killer.
Dina was given a present by his boy friend
the letter is written by me
the food has been cooked by my daddy

thanks a lot

Hi everyone,
I am very pleased and honored to have a such reaction from all of you, so thank you very much.
Now other sentences:
1- Bill breaks the door.
2- He beats me.
3- Sam lived with Ann.
4- You could play with these cups carefully.
again I keep putting these sentences in order to learn from each other.
With my best wishes for you all.

Excuse me Beeesneees can we say:
active: shut the door.
passive: The door [color=blue]must be shut.
Because I learned that " must be " is the auxiliary verb to be in the command passive sentences.
with my regards.

That would be used, yes.

Its really confusing. Please help me. I couldn’t understand that ’ more forms '.
