Asking questions in the passive voice (Part 2 of 2) – Learn the passive – Part 3

so let’s look at this grammar in more
detail a normal or active question looks
like this did Tom kill Ally here Tom is
the subject which did the action kill is
the verb and the object which received
the action is ally and it’s a question
in the past tense easy right so the
passive changes the order of the
sentence the object takes place of the
subject so the object which is now the
subject ally comes to the start now we
need a verb both sides of the subject
and which two things do we use on a
passive B and a past participle B goes
before the subject but which form of B
well it’s in the past tense and it’s
singular so was and the verb is in the
past participle form or verb three form
so killed becomes killed and goes just
after after the verb we need by so the
whole question looks like this was Ali
killed by Tom I didn’t do it I didn’t do
it it wasn’t me it wasn’t me so yeah if
we don’t care about the subject this
question are you arresting me can become
this question am I being arrested
remember if we don’t care about the
subject just don’t say it in present
perfect this question have the police
arrested you before is a good example of
using the passive because the subject is
obvious so we won’t say it and it
becomes this question have you been
arrested before no never
No
in the future tense this question will
you send me to prison in the passive for
the future becomes this will I be sent
to prison and these are all questions
with yes or no answers but with a
question word where what who when why
those are easy to just put the question
word at the beginning of the question
for example who is going to kill tom
that’s an active question but in a
passive looks like this
who is Tom going to be killed by happy
with the grammar ok test time
