The use of the article 'a' before a noun or adjective only when it starts with a consonant sound whereas the use of the article 'an' before a noun or adjective has a vowel sound.

<h3>What do you mean by a noun?</h3>

A noun represents any kind of living or non-living thing, place, action, etc. For example, humans, books, tables, chairs, etc. are considered nouns.

The consonant sound means the noun or adjective starts with the English alphabet apart from vowels. The vowel sound means the noun or adjective starts with the vowels like 'a, e, i, o, and u' respectively.

For example, if a noun like 'human being' starts from the consonant 'h' that means it should be written as 'a human being' whereas a noun like 'animal' starts from the vowel 'a' that means it should be written as 'an animal'.

Therefore, the use of an article depends on the sound of a noun or an adjective.

3. The dog is walked by Mike everyday.

4. Every competition is won by Michael.

5. New things were invented years ago by people.

8. His money was kept in a safe place by him for a long time.

9. News shoes are bought by my brother every year.

10. Delicious candies were sold by Mark in his store.

Explanation:

The use of the "by" agent in sentence construction is also known as the passive voice of sentence writing. The passive voice is a grammatical voice construction where the person or thing on which the action/ verb is acted on comes first in the sentence. An active voice starts the sentence with the doer of the action while the passive voice starts the sentence with the receiver of the action. And in the passive voice, the subject-verb agreement will be according to the tense of the original sentence.

Thus, the new sentences with the "by" agent are as follows-

1. Linda is taken to school everyday by him.

2. The shops were not closed last Saturday by them.

3. The dog is walked by Mike everyday.

4. Every competition is won by Michael.

5. New things were invented years ago by people.

6. The breakfast is prepared by my mother everyday.

7. School uniforms were not worn by us in this school.

8. His money was kept in a safe place by him for a long time.

9. News shoes are bought by my brother every year.

10. Delicious candies were sold by Mark in his store.
