If you want your characters to have king and queen like speaking style, then you can use plural verb instead of single. For example, a dialogue can be: "We like this crockery." Also, try to include old words and old speaking styles. For example, instead of "I want this book", write "We wish this book to be a part of our collection." You can research the medieval English words. Do not use too difficult ones of them, that are difficult to identify today, just use the words that sound old and that don't need a dictionary.

Rewrite each of the following sentences on your own paper, changing all passive voice verbs to active verbs.
1. The coconut cream pie was gobbled down by the starving Scouts.
2. The little village was drenched by a blinding downpour.
3. The budget was slashed by the angry city council.
4. The football goal posts were toppled by the swarming fans.
5. The pale rose petals were caressed by silver moonbeams.
6. A stern warning to striking workers was issued by the governor.
7. The field was pranced upon by the playful ponies.
8. The air was filled by the steady beat of drums.
9. Through the fog and mist a beacon of assurance was sent out by the old lighthouse.
10. Stories of hardship and suffering were told by old Mrs. Hawkins.
Explanation:
First let's look at the difference between active and passive voice:
"Active voice means that a sentence has a subject that acts upon its verb. Passive voice means that a subject is a recipient of a verb's action."
1) The coconut cream pie was gobbled down by the starving Scouts.
What's the subject? The coconut cream pie. What is it doing? Nothing. Its the scouts that are preforming the verb of the sentence. In order to find active voice, we must make that Scouts the subject of the sentence.
The starving scouts gobbled down the coconut cream pie.
2)The little village was drenched by a blinding downpour.
Let's try a different approach. What is the verb? Drenched. Now what is doing the drenching? The down pour. Whatever noun is preforming the verb will be the subject of an active voice sentence. So . . .
A blinding downpour drenched the little village.
In short, in active voice, the main subject must be doing the main verb
Answer:
I'm not going to give an explanation for all of these, but I encourage you to try some of these yourself using the methods introduced above i.e find the main verb and from there find what is doing the verb, or find the main subject and create the sentence around it so it's doing the action.
3) The angry city council slashed the budget.
4) The swarming fans toppled the football goal posts.
5) The silver moonbeams caressed the pale rose petals
6) The governor issued a stern warning to striking workers
(Note: Here, striking is not the verb of the sentence but an adjective to describe workers. Could also be a gerund, I'm not sure. Either way, it's not the main verb.)
7) The playful ponies pranced upon the field.
8) The stead beat of drums filled the air.
9) Through the fog and mist, the old light house sent a beacon of assurance.
(Note: Through the fog and mist is a prepositional phrase and could be put at the end of the sentence or the beginning)
10) Mrs. Hawkins told stories of hardship and suffering.
(Note: suffering is part of the preposition and thus is not the main verb)

Which of these sentences from the short story "the yellow wallpaper" by charlotte perkins gilman uses verbal irony?
Hi. You did not present the answer options, which makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question exactly like yours, which showed the answer options present in the attached image below. In that case, I hope the answer below can help you.
Answer:
It is so hard to talk to John about my case, because he is so wise, and because he loves me so.
Explanation:
Verbal irony refers to a moment in the text when the narrator or character speaks something contrary to reality. It is possible to see this in the sentence above because the narrator says that her husband loves her and cares a lot about her, but this is not true, since "The yellow wallpaper" tells the story of a woman who, when presenting symptoms of emotional exhaustion, was locked away by her husband who began to "paint" her as a crazy woman and acted in a way that made her more dependent and out of touch with reality.
Answer:
answer is c. It is so hard to talk to John about my case, because he is so wise, and because he loves me so.
