Q:
What is the difference between He had been attacked at the his home. and He had attacked at the his home. ?
A:
First of all in both sentence it is incorrect to have the word "the" and "his" at the same time. It is either "at the home" meaning any home or " at his home" meaning his own home and in your case it seems you meant "his".
Secondly: The first sentence, "He had been attacked at his home," means that someone else attacked him at his home. The sentence is in the passive voice, with "had been attacked" being the past participle of the verb "attack." This sentence implies that the person was a victim of an attack.
Example: John had been attacked at his home by a group of intruders.
The second sentence, "He had attacked at his home," is grammatically incorrect because it has an extra "at" between "attacked" and "his." However, if we remove the extra "at" and write it as "He had attacked his home," it means that he attacked his own home. This sentence is in the active voice, with "had attacked" being the past participle of the verb "attack." This sentence implies that the person was the one who carried out the attack on his own home.
Example: Tom had attacked his home in a fit of rage and damaged the walls and furniture.
