Explanation:
・Passive voice produces a sentence in which the subject receives an action.
- Tells us what is done to someone or something.
- Passive voice often creates unclear, less direct, wordy sentences
Formula: Object + verb + subject
・Active voice produces a sentence in which the subject performs an action.
- Tells us what a person or thing does.
- Active voice creates clearer, more concise sentences.
Formula: Subject + verb + object
Example:
・Passive voice - The house was painted by Marie.
・Active voice - Marie painted the house.
- Subject: Marie
- Verb: was painted/painted
- Object: house
Tip: If you see "by" in a sentence, it may be in passive voice.
(Not always the case), for example:
・Passive voice - A cake was baked.
・Active voice - I baked a cake.
- Subject: I
- Verb: baked
- Object: cake
