CHANGE TO PASSIVE VOICE;MY SISTER SPEAKS THREE DIFFERENT LANGUAGES QUITE FLUENTLY

Three different languages are spoken quite fluently by my sister.

Notice the use of the preposition by to shift to passive voice. Most languages do not allow for this, as English does. This is an odditiy, normally one can construct a passive voice without the use of prepositions.

She hit me (active voice).
I was hit by her (passive voice)


Why did the chicken cross the road?
Why was the road crossed by the chicken?

NICE EXPLANATION THANKS

To change the given sentence from active voice to passive voice, follow these steps:

1. Identify the subject, verb, and object in the active sentence.

Subject: My sister
Verb: speaks
Object: three different languages quite fluently

2. Make the object of the active sentence the subject of the passive sentence.

Three different languages quite fluently (object) -> Three different languages quite fluently (subject of the passive sentence)

3. Convert the verb from active to passive form.

The verb "speaks" needs to be changed to its passive form, which is "is/are + past participle of the verb." In this case, the verb "speak" becomes "spoken."

"Speaks" (active verb) -> "spoken" (passive verb)

4. Add the auxiliary verb "is" or "are" to the passive voice sentence.

Since the subject is "three different languages quite fluently," we use the plural form of the auxiliary verb "are."

Original sentence: My sister speaks three different languages quite fluently.
Passive voice: Three different languages quite fluently are spoken by my sister.
