About this listen

This week, Tim continues and completes his deep analysis of the passive voice, identifying and clarifying six unusual and advanced passive constructions.
Three of these constructions (for example, replacing BE with GET) are typical of conversational English, so learning them can help you understand and use everyday language with better accuracy and confidence. The other three constructions are common in written and formal English, and will help you understand the news and intelligent conversation in greater detail.
