Blessed are the those who mourn, for they shall be comforted (The passive!!!)
I just started a blog post but lost it., so here I go again, back on the verb again. There are so many clouds in my head regarding verbs that to be honest with you I really never know where to start my studies. For some reason it is hard to try to take it step by step. So lets try and clear up some questions regarding verbs which repeatedly plague me! The first is which of the hitpael verbs are passive? Well the good thing about hitpale verbs is that they are easily recognisable because they usually start with a hit!!! (התפעל: היא פעלים מבינין התפעל ובדרך כלל הם מתחלים עם הת) So here are at least ten passive hitpael verbs. 1. To become naturalised (), 2. to be balanced () 3. to become united (), 4. to be healed (). 5. to be disappointed () 6. to become verified (), 7. to be zeroed (), 8. to be made possible (), 9. to be acclimatised (). 10. to be lengthened. The weird thing about passive verbs is that we use them all the time but don't realise it so when we have to turn a verb into passive we tend to struggle to see how the sentence works!
