Grammar

Adverbs & Adjectives:

Bijwoorden (adverbs) beschrijven hoe/wanneer iets gebeurt, en met name hoe een werkwoord wordt uitgevoerd/gedaan.

Er wordt bijvoorbeeld SNEL gelopen, HARD gelopen, MORGEN gelopen. (fast/ hardly / tomorrow)

Adjectives beschrijven het naamwoord (naam voor iets). Je geeft hiermee een beschrijving waardoor je het naamwoord bijvoorbeeld kan vinden/herkennen op basis van jouw beschrijving.

He is carrying a blue bag. It is a big blue bag and the person is wearing wooden glasses. He has curly, black hair.

 

Grammar

Read the text below and write down the adverbs (bijwoorden) and adjectives (bijvoeglijk naamwoorden). 

You can find 5 'bijwoorden' en 13 'bijvoeglijk naamwoorden'.

John is a kind person. We have known him for years now and he is always warmly welcoming everyone at the large entrance of our company. Our great company has the only purple logo in this beautiful country. John is a one of a kind security guard. His light blue uniform is always the first thing people notice as he rapidly races through the halls. His swift actions of him swiftly catching evil thiefs will be remembered. Everyone knows him well, and that's why we are sad to inform you our dear colleague is leaving this beautiful company. Since this will happen rather quickly, we are sending you this written memo.

Grammar

Passive voice:

-Je gebruikt de passive voice als je de actie wilt benoemen en niet de persoon die de actie heeft gedaan. Je legt de nadruk dus op de actie omdat je bijv. al weet wie heeft gedaan. 

The hotelroom was cleaned (by the cleaners).

The fire was extinguished (by the fire brigade).

He was arrested (by the police).

Active voice: 

Als je de persoon juist wel wil of moet benoemen dan gebruik je de active voice.

Dad painted the walls yesterday. (Instead of; The walls were painted yesterday by....) 

Mr. Van der Sloot killed her. (instead of she was killed by....)
