Question

Tell me is it’s correct if not write down the right answer, thank you .

The sentence is :
Lunch for the guests ( was or were ) prepared yesterday.



Note : its a passive voice.

Answer 1

You would use was.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using "were" in this sense, while it is past tense, doesn't make sense. It is not grammatically correct. If you notice "lunch" is not plural, meaning "were" would not fit it. You would use "was" for it to be grammatically correct.

Here's what the sentence would look like if you used were: "Lunches for the guests were prepared yesterday."

If you were to use "was", the sentence would be: "Lunch for the guests was prepared yesterday.", because the "lunch" is singular. Making this the correct sentence.

I hope this helps!
