Year 7: Passive Voice with Modals (Wednesday, 18 March)

Kuna eilse ülesande tegemise käigus selgus, et suurim probleem passiiviga edukalt hakkama saamisel on tegusõnade 3. põhivormi teadmine, siis tänase tunni alguses harjutame veidi seda.

TASK 1
Past participle (mineviku kesksõna e. 3. põhivorm)

a) Go to https://www.englisch-hilfen.de/en/exercises/irregular_verbs/crossword_past_participle.htm#evaluation
b) Do the crossword. (You can use the table of irregular verbs in your textbook, pages 125-127.)
c) Send me a picture of your results (the results appear at the top of the page after you have clicked "Check crossword".)

TASK 2
Passive voice with modals (modaalverbide passiiv)

Mäletate, passiivi üldkuju oli:       BE vorm õiges ajavormis + tegusõna 3. põhivorm.

Modaalverbide passiiv on veelgi lihtsam. Selle kuju on

modaalverb + be + tegusõna 3. põhivorm

For example:
You should sing this song twice because it's so short.
This song should be sung twice because it's so short.

You can say his name in two different ways.
His name can be said in two different ways.

They shouldn't touch this button.
This button shouldn't be touched.


Let's practise!

a) Copy the following exercise and make a Word document of it.
b) Fill in the blanks on your document.
c) Send the document to me (via e-mail).
d) Answer the 5 questions that I ask from you either in my answer to your e-mail or in our messenger window.
