I am really dejected about the "Passive sentence" of this "Active sentence" = I know him.
One of my friends told me that "He is known to me" is not a passive sentence. He said that it is like this "He is industrious, or he is intelligent". "KNOWN" IS ADJECTIVE HERE.
I am really confused about this sentence. Even we know that "in passive" the word "Know" is followed by preposition "To". Is it not a passive sentence?
My friend's explanation is given below.
I know him.
This sentence cannot be changed into passive voice. The verb (know) is a stative verb here. A knows B. It's just a statement, no action is taking place. Similar sentence:
☞I am James.
This is also a statement. (No action is taking place, it's just my name.) So, this sentence cannot be changed into passive voice. If you think "He is known to me." is in passive form, then you need to know that "known" is an adjective here.
It's not v3. He is known (adjective) to me. So, this is not the passive form. Similar example: He is worried (adjective) about him. The right answer is: The given sentence cannot be changed into passive voice.
He is known to me.
