Hi.
"The computer which is repaired by him is my friend's."
Is this sentence gramatically right?
If it is, how can I change the underlined part into active voice?
"The computer which he repairs is my friend's." or
"The computer which he has repaired is my friend's." ?
or both are right?
If "is repaired" means stative passive, then I know that the active voice should be "has repaired". But stative passive can be used with "by"? I guess only actional passive can be followed by "by+agent".
And if the action he repairs my friend's computer happens repeatedly, I guess "the computer which he repairs" sounds right.
Please help me with these questions.
Thanks in advance,
Ashley.
