As an English learner sometimes it seems difficult some parts of the language, not only learning grammar but also using it spontaneously while I am in the middle of a conversation. Thanks for your effort Emma!
    We could make mistakes but we must keep going to speak English while we’re learning from our mistakes.

    Excellent. A beautiful narration of passive voice was heard in a lovely voice today morning and I am fascinated with it. In my mother tongue, there is no need for passive systems since our grammar rules have different structure rules.so our teachers make artificial sentences in our language to teach us the passive from which were quite boring and confusing. But we know it is important in the English language because of the structure or word rules give us clarity. Your narration is quite natural and pleasing. But I hope we will be taught the use of ergative verbs by you in this connection. Thanks with love
