On: Hemingway makes your writing bold and clear

[aymeric]

This is great.

I struggle with correcting my use of passive voice and I wish there were suggestions.

For example, how would you rephrase this? "put some headphones on to reduce the odds of being interrupted by someone."

[penguindev → aymeric]

Wear headphones so you aren't interrupted. Wear headphones to reduce interruptions.

IANAEM (not an english major)

Actually, is your original even that bad? I though passive would be "Interruptions are reduced by you wearing headphones."

[magicroundabout → aymeric]

er, "put some headphones on to reduce the odds of someone interrupting [you/him/her/null]."

[tlarkworthy → aymeric]

put some headphones on to reduce (the risk of) interruptions by others.

[admiralpumpkin → aymeric]

headphones reduce the odds of some interrupting you
