	CalifJim  +  584893 Fri, 07 Nov 08 06:21 PM  call over the names?  That is not correct.  What do you mean? ___ You have no transitive verbs in the main clause, so you can't change those sentences to passive. The only transitive verbs you have are infinitives, so those are the only structures that you can change to passive. It is time to stop the work becomes It is time for the work to be stopped. _____ If you want to try another, try to make the infinitive passive in this one: It was important to close all the windows.  CJ  CalifJim Joined on Mon, Aug 2 2004 California Veteran Member 22,385 "There are no facts, only interpretations" - Nietzsche Verbs, Clauses
