Takeaways

• 😀 Passive voice is a sentence structure where the subject receives the action of the verb, opposite to active voice.
• 😀 Active voice sentences with transitive verbs can be changed into passive voice, while intransitive verbs cannot.
• 😀 Transitive verbs are followed by a direct object, e.g., 'paint' in 'I painted the wall,' while intransitive verbs do not have a direct object, e.g., 'arrive' in 'My friend arrives.'
• 😀 In passive voice, the direct object of the active sentence becomes the subject, and the subject becomes the agent, introduced by 'by.'
• 😀 In the simple present tense, passive voice uses 'is' or 'are' plus the verb in past participle form, and optionally 'by' to indicate the agent.
• 😀 For example, 'The teacher explains the lesson' in active voice becomes 'The lesson is explained by the teacher' in passive voice.
• 😀 In the simple past tense, passive voice uses 'was' or 'were' plus the verb in past participle form, followed by 'by' and the agent.
• 😀 Example in the simple past tense: 'The security helped mom' changes to 'Mom was helped by the security.'
• 😀 In the simple future tense, passive voice uses 'will be' plus the verb in past participle form, and optionally 'by' to introduce the agent.
• 😀 Example in the simple future tense: 'The TV host will open the mystery box' becomes 'The mystery box will be opened by the TV host.'

Q & A

What is the primary difference between active and passive voice?

In active voice, the subject performs the action, while in passive voice, the subject receives the action. Passive voice is essentially the opposite of active voice.

Can all sentences be converted into passive voice?

No, only sentences with transitive verbs (verbs that take a direct object) can be converted into passive voice. Sentences with intransitive verbs (verbs that do not take a direct object) cannot be turned into passive voice.

What is a transitive verb? Can you give an example?

A transitive verb is a verb that is followed by a direct object. For example, in the sentence 'I painted the wall,' 'painted' is the transitive verb, and 'the wall' is the direct object.

What is an intransitive verb? Can you provide an example?

An intransitive verb does not require a direct object to complete its meaning. For example, in the sentence 'She arrived early,' 'arrived' is the intransitive verb, and there is no direct object.

How do you form passive sentences in the simple present tense?

To form passive sentences in the simple present tense, move the object to the beginning of the sentence, use 'is' or 'are' depending on whether the subject is singular or plural, and add the past participle of the verb (V3). Optionally, include 'by' + the original subject.

In the simple past tense, how do you convert an active sentence into a passive one?

In the simple past tense, move the object to the front, use 'was' or 'were' (based on whether the subject is singular or plural), and add the past participle (V3) of the verb. Optionally, include 'by' + the original subject.

How is the passive voice formed in the future tense?

In the future tense, start with the object of the sentence, use 'will be' followed by the past participle (V3) of the verb. Optionally, add 'by' + the original subject.

What is the structure of a passive voice sentence in simple present tense?

The structure for passive voice in simple present tense is: Subject + To Be (is/are) + Verb3 (past participle) + (by Agent).

What happens when you try to convert a sentence with an intransitive verb into passive voice?

Sentences with intransitive verbs cannot be converted into passive voice because there is no direct object that can become the subject of the passive sentence.

Can you provide an example of a sentence in the passive voice in simple future tense?

Sure! For example, 'The mystery box will be opened by the TV host' is a passive voice sentence in simple future tense. The object 'the mystery box' becomes the subject of the sentence, and 'will be' + verb3 is used.
