My dear friends! Being a professional teacher of English grammar, I decided to start this group to help you improve your knowledge of the subject. Many members asked me to do it and I do feel like that! So, I am planning to start a few discussions where you will be able to ask me questions or to have some practice. I'd also like to involve my husband, a native speaker, who is supposed to be helpful. So, how do you feel about such a group?
Rewrite into a passive sentence: "You haven't given the gift to Pete"
Is it not "The gift hasn't been given to Pete by you" ? I was marked down for writing my answer as such instead of "The gift to Pete hasn't been given by you". How is it any different?

Dear Afro! No problem! The weather is so rainy that we always think either to go out or not. But, according to the weather forecast it is being expected to improve and we would like to spend one more week in the cool mountains as we live in the heat all year round. OK, let me answer your question. You see, the English language is poor enough. So, we use all the possibilities to make it more emotional. When I tell my wife "I love you so very much" I'd like her to realize my feeling is very sincere and deep. Is it clear? You can ask me your questions. If we decide to go somewhere, you will not see me online, that's all! But I will answer some later in any case
