PASSIVE VOICE WITH MODALS : STRUCTURES & QUESTIONS
In English, the passive voice is often used when the focus is on the action rather than who or what is performing the action. When constructing sentences in the passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence.
Modal verbs such as 'can, could, would, should, may, might, must, and have to' play a crucial role in expressing ability, possibility, necessity, or obligation. When used in the passive voice, these modals follow specific patterns:
đź”®O for Object (कर्म)
đź”®V3 - Verb 3 (Third form of the verb)
đź”®S for Subject (कर्ता)
đź”®by S कर्त्याकडून
