Ever wondered why Luxembourgish speakers often use indirect phrasing? 

One key reason is the passive voice – a powerful tool that allows you to shift focus from who is doing something to what is being done.

✅ Why use the passive voice?

• To emphasize the action rather than the person performing it
• To sound more polite and respectful, which is essential in Luxembourgish communication
• To phrase things more indirectly, often for confidentiality or diplomacy

Since Luxembourgish culture values subtlety and courtesy, mastering the passive voice will help you speak more naturally and adapt to local communication styles.
