John ate the hamburger. <~~active voice
The hamburger was eaten by John. <~~passive voice
Which is it? B or C?
John ate the hamburger. <~~active voice
The hamburger was eaten by John. <~~passive voice
Which is it? B or C?
I would say A there is no action needing to be performed. B is the action of the subject wanting something C is the action the subject is doing. A has no action being performed just making a statement.
I said A so what is the correct answer
C is right.
