Grammar: Active Passive Voice

Question:

Select the correct passive form of the given sentence.

Shashi was enjoying the game.

Options:

The game is being enjoyed by Shashi.

The game was enjoying by Shashi.

The game has been enjoyed by Shashi.

The game was being enjoyed by Shashi.

Correct Answer:

The game was being enjoyed by Shashi.

Explanation:

The correct passive form of the given sentence "Shashi was enjoying the game" is The game was being enjoyed by Shashi.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • The game is being enjoyed by Shashi uses the present progressive tense, while the original sentence is in the simple past tense.
  • The game was enjoying by Shashi is grammatically incorrect. The verb "enjoying" is in the present participle form, but it is not used correctly in the passive voice.
  • The game has been enjoyed by Shashi uses the present perfect tense, which is not typically used for actions that happen continuously.
  • The game was enjoying is grammatically incorrect. The verb "enjoying" is in the present participle form, but it is not used correctly in the passive voice.
