Grammar game: Active and Passive Voice - Simple Future Tense
Active: Subject + will/shall + first form of the verb + object Passive: Object of the active sentence + will/shall + be + past participle form of the verb + by + subject of the active sentence
These are the rules:
Write a sentence using first active and then passive voice
Write both in Spanish and English
Note: Use any verb and pronoun, but just in simple future tense
Example:
| Voice | English | Spanish |
| Active | I shall play tennis | Jugaré tenis el próximo domingo |
| Passive | Tennis | El tenis será jugado por mí el próximo domingo |
This is the table template if you want to use it (just copy and paste the blue code):
<table border=3 bgcolor=orange> <tr><td><i>Voice</i></td> <td><i>English</i></td><td> <i>Spanish</i></td> <tr><td><b>Active</b></td> <td>English active sentence</td> <td>Spanish active sentence</td> <tr><td><b>Passive</b></td> <td>English passive sentence</td> <td>Spanish passive sentence</td> </table>
Please don't edit this post or the template will be lost

Sunday, sin on Carlos, tennis next Sunday, los días siempre mayúscula - 00494d19, Apr 21, 2010
"Tennis will be". We only use "shall" after "I" or "We". And there's no preposition before "next Sunday", "this afternoon", etc - Fidalgo, Apr 21, 2010
Thanks very much....I forgot everything about English...jejeje - Carlos-F, Apr 21, 2010
Carlos, While "shall" is still a legitimate word, it has in most places been replaced by the more informal word "will." - Maria-Russell, Apr 21, 2010
the table has an error "orange>" instead of "orange;>" - Fidalgo, Apr 21, 2010
Diablos....no le apunto a una hoy...jejejeje...Gracias Fidalgo..... - Carlos-F, Apr 21, 2010

Another one of those le/lo examples where it seems a d.o. in English; a i.o. in Spanish? - 0074b507, Apr 21, 2010
I'd like the way you used "usted" instead of "tú" :) - Fidalgo, Apr 22, 2010
Thanks for the kind words - Maria-Russell, Apr 22, 2010
Fi, me gusta = I like; me gustaría = I'd like. ; - ) - Maria-Russell, Apr 22, 2010
Is "Yo" really necessary here?...Why is "Le enseñaré." wrong? - luz_72, Apr 23, 2010
