Passive Voice Exercises For Danish Grammar

Student solving language grammar tasks for practiceย 

In Danish grammar, the Passive Voice is used to shift the focus from the subject performing the action to the action itself. It’s created by adding the suffix “-s” to the verb in the present and past tense, or by using the auxiliary verb “blive” or “bliver” followed by the past participle. Passive constructions make sentences more formal and are often seen in written texts.
