What to Focus On

  • The subject performs the action.
  • Active voice is more common and natural in writing.
  • It makes sentences shorter and clearer.
  • The subject receives the action.
  • Passive voice uses 'be' + past participle of the verb.
  • Used when the doer is unknown, unimportant, or to emphasize the action.
  • Object becomes subject.
  • Subject becomes optional object with 'by'.
  • Use correct form of 'be' + past participle.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All sentences can be changed into passive voice.

The subject always does the action, so it stays the same in passive voice.

Passive voice always needs 'by' at the end.
