    · Active Voice- Active voice is a grammatical structure in which the subject of the sentence performs the action expressed by the verb.
    · Passive Voice- Passive voice refers to a grammatical construction where the subject of a sentence undergoes an action rather than performing it. In passive voice sentences, the emphasis is on the recipient or object of the action.
    · Original Passive Sentence: "You are requested to give me change for ₹2000."
    · This sentence structure is a passive form commonly used in formal requests or instructions.
    Steps to Convert:
    · Identify Implied Subject: In your original sentence, the implied subject who is making the request (like a cashier) is not explicitly mentioned, common in passive instructions.
    · Rephrase with a Direct Actor: Since the actor (the person asking for change) isn't specified, the active voice can incorporate a direct address to the listener using a polite request format.
    · Verb Adjustment: "You are requested to" in passive becomes "Please give" in active, maintaining the polite tone but shifting to a direct imperative structure.
    Active Voice Conversion:
    · Resulting Sentence: "Please give me change for ₹2000."
    · This maintains the polite request tone of the original passive voice and directly addresses the action without needing additional context or changing the implied meaning.
