Can anybody tell me how many mistakes are there?


Norwich is a fine city according to the signs which welcomes you as you arrives in the city outskirts.

There is interesting city walks through the old narrow streets and by the river, and there is many medieval buildings.

Boat trips regularly leaves the city to join the river Yare.

These are man  made waterways which covers much of the west side.

Why Do we Need 'Voice Change'

Read  the following two sentences:

Aslam plays football.
Football is played by Aslam.


There is no difference between the two sentences but in the first sentence the subject acts or complete the job and in the second sentence the subject is acted upon or the object becomes the subject.


Another example

This year 500 core taka is allocated for road construction.

Who allocated this money, ...... off course the government but in this sentence
the government (the subject) is hidden because it is a passive voice.
Here the action is more important than the subject.


nature

Grammar mistake is a very big problem. How can we reduce thsi problem?

                                              ___________     ________    ______________
                                             
                                               Object becomes   Verb       Subject becomes complement
                                               subject
