  2. PASSIVE VOICE The form of the passive voice: subject to be participle My car was repaired

  3. PASSIVE VOICE We use the passive when: * we want to make the active object more important * we do not know the active subject

  4. REPORTED STATEMENTS • When transforming sentences we have to change: • Pronouns • Tenses (backshift) • Adverbs of time and place

  5. CHANGE OF TENSES

  6. REPORTED QUESTIONS • When transforming a question you also have to change the word order into indirect questions (affirmative sentence). • e.g. „Do you like ice-cream?“ She asked if I liked ice-cream. • „What is you favourite film?“ He wanted to know what my favourite film was.

  7. ORDERS AND REQUESTS To transform commands and requests we use infinitive clause. • e.g. „Sit down.“ She told us to sit down. • „Can you open the window, please?“ She asked me to open the window.

  8. RELATIVE CLAUSES In relative clauses you learn some additional information about the main clause. • e.g. I don´t know the woman Tom is talking to. He didn´t answer my call, which was strange. Do you know the boy whose mother is a nurse?

  9. RELATIVE PRONOUNS
