  • Hello, and welcome to Learning English Grammar.

  • I'm Beth.

  • And I'm Phil.

  • We just heard Pippa talking about witnessing a robbery,

  • and Neil having his favourite possession stolen.

  • I wonder what it was.

  • Well, I'm sure we'll find out.

  • Also, in this episode, we'll learn when and how to use the passive.

  • An example of the passive is a man was arrested.

  • Instead of, the police arrested a man, which we call active.
