</ul>
<ol style="color: rgb(255,255,255);">
<li>The object "my watch" becomes the subject of the passive sentence.</li>

“We were  enchanted by him “എന്ന വാക്യത്തിൽ, "നമുക്ക്/us" ആ പ്രവർത്തനം സംഭവിക്കുന്നു, കാരണം "നമ്മൾ/we" മയക്കപ്പെട്ടവരാണ് (the ones who are feeling enchanted).
In active voice, വാചകത്തിന്റെ subject പ്രവൃത്തി (action) നിർവഹിക്കുന്നയാളാണ്. അതിനാൽ, അത് active ആക്കുന്നതിന് , we focus on "him" ("നമ്മളെ" വശീകരിച്ച വ്യക്തി/the person who enchanted "us")  as the subject doing the enchanting. That's why we say, "He enchanted us."
