Some important points and common about adjectives:
Important point Example
Comparative degree should be used only when  This book is better than the other.
comparison is implied.
Comparatives ending in -or & - er are followed by 'to'.  I am senior to him.
 He prefers health to wealth.
Double comparatives & superlatives should be avoided.  He is more abler than his brother. (Incorrect)
 He is abler than his brother. (Correct)
 He is the most richest man in the city. (Incorrect)
 He is the richest man in the city. (Correct)
'Less' is used for quantity,  There were fewer calls this week.
'Fewer' for number.  There is less reason to be watchful now.
'Some' is used in affirmative sentences and 'Any' in  He has got some good story books.
negative sentences.  There is some milk in the pot.
 He has not got any good story books.
 There isn't any milk in the pot.
Differentiate between 'Little', 'a little', and 'the little'.  There’s little water left, so we might run out.”
 Little: Almost none; not enough (negative)  “There’s a little water left, enough to drink.”
 A Little: Some; sufficient (positive)  “We’ll use the little water we have left carefully.
 The Little: The small amount that exists or is "He saved the little coins he had.
available "This sentence is incorrect because "the little" usually
applies to uncountable or abstract nouns like "time" or
"money" rather than countable nouns like "coins." It would
be clearer to say, "He saved a few coins," as "a few" is used
with countable nouns.

Differentiate between 'Few', 'a few', and 'the few'.  Few men are free from faults.

Lecture 12
Rules for Direct and Indirect Speech
1. Direct Speech:
 The exact words of the speaker are quoted.
 Example: Rama said, ‘I am very busy now.’
2. Indirect (or Reported) Speech:
 The speaker's words are reported without quoting the exact words.
 Example: Rama said that he was very busy then.
Key Points:
 Direct Speech uses inverted commas to mark the exact words of the speaker, while Indirect Speech
does not.
 There are certain changes when converting Direct to Indirect Speech:
i. Introduction of conjunction "that" before the Indirect statement.
ii. Change in pronouns.
iii. Change in tense. iv. Change in adverbs.
Guidelines for Changing Tenses:
When the reporting or principal verb is in the Past Tense:
a. Simple present becomes a simple past. –
Direct: He said, ‘I am unwell.’
Indirect: He said (that) he was unwell.
!‫ےبکشروقراراکامکلاہلل۔ے۔ و وروردرارمام رافرںو اوررںوںو ےس دنل۔ے۔اذہا مرق لال ےلوص ے ےیفر اہللور نیقر ےتھئوےئآپیکتنحمےساجباحلصرکےنںیم(یمیلعت) دمدرکںیےگ۔اہللامہریاورآپیک دمدرفامےئ۔آنیم‬

b. Present continuous becomes a past continuous.


- Direct: He said, ‘My master is writing letters.’
Indirect: He said (that) his master was writing letters.
c. Present perfect becomes a past perfect. –
Direct: He said, ‘I have passed the examination.’ –
Indirect: He said (that) he had passed the examination.
Note:
 The "shall" of the Future Tense is changed to "should."
 The "will" of the Future Tense is changed to "would" or "should." Typically,
the simple past in Direct becomes the past perfect in Indirect. Exceptions:
Tenses may not always change if:
 The statement is still relevant.
 It's a universal truth.
 One can often choose whether to keep the original tenses or change them. For
example, uncertain statements or objective reporting often use the past tense. Effect
of Reporting Verb in Present Tense on Direct and Indirect Speech
When the reporting verb is in the Present Tense, the tenses of the Direct Speech do not change.
Examples:
1. Direct: He said, ‘I am unwell.’
 Indirect: He says he is unwell.
2. Direct: He just said, ‘My master is writing letters.’
 Indirect: He has just said his master is writing letters.
3. Direct: He said, ‘I have passed the examination.’
 Indirect: He says he has passed the examination.
4. Direct: He said, ‘The horse died in the night.’
 Indirect: He says the horse died in the night.
Changes in Pronouns:
The pronouns of the Direct Speech are modified as needed to ensure their relations align with the reporter
and the listener, rather than with the original speaker.
Example:
Direct: He said to me, ‘I don’t believe you.’
Indirect: He said he didn’t believe me.
Direct. She said to him, ‘I don’t believe you.’
Indirect. She said she didn’t believe him.
Direct. I said to him, ‘I don’t believe you.’
Indirect. I said I didn’t believe him.
Direct. I said to you, ‘I don’t believe you.’
Indirect. I said I didn’t believe you.
Reporting Questions in Indirect Speech
1. Introduction by Verbs: When reporting questions, the Indirect Speech typically begins with verbs like
asked, inquired, and so on.
2. Usage of "whether" or "if": If the question doesn't begin with an interrogative word (like what, where,
why, how, etc.), the reporting verb can be followed by the conjunctions whether or if.
Examples:
 Direct: He said to me, ‘What are you doing?’
 Indirect: He asked me what I was doing.
Direct: ‘Where do you live?’ asked the stranger.
 Indirect: The stranger inquired where I lived.
Direct: The policeman said to us, ‘Where are you going?’

Lecture 13
Voice in Grammar
Voice indicates the relationship between the subject and the verb in a sentence, specifically, who is doing the action
and who is receiving it. There are two primary voices in English grammar:
1. Active Voice
2. Passive Voice
1. Active Voice
In the active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action.
Definition: When the verb indicates that the subject performs an action, it is in the Active Voice.
Example:
 Ram eats an apple. (Here, "Ram" is the subject and he is the one doing the action of eating.)
2. Passive Voice
In the passive voice, the subject of the sentence is acted upon or receives the action.
Definition: Passive Voice shows that an action is done to the subject.
Example:
 An apple is eaten by Ram. (Here, "an apple" is the subject but it is not doing any action. Instead, it is being acted
upon by "Ram".)

Reasons for Using Passive Voice:


1. Obvious Subject: When the doer of the action is clearly understood, it might be omitted in the passive voice.
 e.g., The letters were delivered (by the postman).
2. Unknown Subject: When we don't know who performed the action, passive voice is useful.
 e.g., My pen was stolen.
3. Concealing the Identity: Sometimes, for various reasons including sensitivity or politeness, the doer's identity
might be intentionally omitted.
 e.g., He was dismissed from his job. (Here, it's not specified who dismissed him.)
2. Scientific Writing: In scientific processes, methods, or reports, the focus is often on the procedure or
result rather than who conducted it.
 e.g., Twenty milliliters of Sulphuric acid was taken in a test-tube and heated.
3. Emphasizing the Action Over the Doer: In some cases, the action or result is more significant than
who did it.
Changing Active Voice to Passive Voice: Rules and Examples
Basic Rules:
1. Swap Subject and Object
 The object of the verb in active voice becomes the subject in passive voice.
2. Introduce the Agent with "by"
 The original subject from the active voice (the "doer" of the action) usually becomes the object in the passive voice,
often introduced by the preposition "by".
3. Retain the Tense
 The tense of the verb remains consistent between the active and passive voices.
4. Use the Past Participle Form
 The verb in the passive voice will always be in its past participle form (third form).
5. Employ the Correct "Be" Verb Form
 Depending on the tense and subject, the appropriate form of "be" (is, am, are, was, were, been, have been, had
been, will be, shall be) is used in conjunction with the past participle.
Passive Voice for Interrogative Sentences
Interrogative sentences beginning with auxiliary verbs:
1. Questions with do/does/did
 Active: Do many people watch this serial?
Passive: Is this serial watched by many people?
 Active: Did you complete your work in time?
Passive: Was your work completed by you in time?
2. Questions in continuous tense
 Active: Is she making coffee?
Passive: Is coffee being made by her?
3. Questions with has/have/had
 Active: Has he written the letter?
Passive: Has the letter been written by him?
4. Questions with modal auxiliaries
 Active: Can you sing this song?
Passive: Can this song be sung by you?
Interrogative sentences with "wh" words:
For questions beginning with "wh" words, the order typically goes: "wh" word + auxiliary verb + subject
+ main verb.
 Active: Why did you cut down the tree?
Passive: Why was the tree cut down by you?
 Active: Where do you keep your books?
Passive: Where are your books kept by you?
For questions starting with "who", the pattern becomes: "by whom" + auxiliary verb + subject + verb in its third form.

 Active: Who will make a kite?


Passive: By whom will a kite be made?
 Active: Who will bell the cat?
Passive: By whom will the cat be belled?
Key Takeaway: When converting active interrogative sentences to passive, the general rule of thumb is to keep the
interrogative nature intact, while making necessary adjustments to ensure the passive structure and meaning are
accurate.
