Question

Change the following sentence from Active Voice to Passive Voice.
He takes dinner at 8 p.m. everyday.

A.

Dinner is taken by him at 8 p.m. everyday.

B.

Everyday at 8 p.m. dinner was taken by him.

C.

At 8 p.m. everyday dinner was taken by him.

D.

Dinner is being taken by him at 8 p.m. everyday.

Correct option is A


The correct passive voice of the given sentence is (a) Dinner is taken by him at 8 p.m. everyday.
Detailed Explanation (English):
• The given sentence expresses a routine/habit (“everyday”), so it is in Simple Present Tense.
• While changing from active to passive, the tense must remain the same.
• The object “dinner” becomes the subject in passive voice.
• Simple Present Passive structure is: is/am/are + V³.
• “takes” (V¹ with -s) changes to taken (V³).
• Therefore, “Dinner is taken…” is the correct passive form.
Grammatical rule used (English):
• Simple Present (Active): Subject + V¹(s/es) + Object
• Simple Present (Passive): Object + is/am/are + V³ + by + Subject
Grammatical rule used (Hindi):
• Active से Passive बनाते समय tense (काल) नहीं बदलता
• Simple Present Passive की संरचना: is/am/are + क्रिया का तीसरा रूप (V³)
• Passive में object को subject बनाया जाता है और कर्ता “by” से आता है।
Example:
Active: He writes a letter.
Passive: A letter is written by him.
Why other options are incorrect:
• (b) “was taken” → Simple Past (tense changed)
• (c) “was taken” → Simple Past (tense changed)
• (d) “is being taken” → Present Continuous (tense changed)
