PASSIVEVOICE

INFO

Thepassivevoice is a grammaticalconstruction in which the subject

of a sentence or clause denotes the recipient of the action rather than the
performer. Active voice is a more regular used in life everyday rather than
passivevoice.Passivevoiceisusedbecausetheobjectofactivevoiceismore
important rather than the subject. Many language critics and languageusage
manuals discourage use of the passive voice. In English this advice is not
usually found in older guides, emerging only in the first half of the twentieth
century.
Example:
Active:wefertilizetheplantsevery3months
Passive:theplantsisfertilizedbyusevery3months
Accordingtotheexampleabove,wecanseethat:
1.Theobjectinactivevoice(theplants)becomesubjectinpassivevoice.
2. The subject in active voice (we) become object in passive voice. And
thereischangefromsubjectpronounwebecomeobjectpronounus.
3. Verb1 (fertilize) in active voice become verb3 (fertilized) in passive
voice.
4.Addedtobeisinfrontofverb3.Tobethatuseddependonthesubjectin
passivevoiceandtensesthatused.
5. Added by after verb3. but, if the object in passive voice assumed
unimportant or not known, so the object is usually not used and so is
by.

Not every passive verb can or should be made active. Sometimes you

to obscure who performed an action. Sometimes you want the focus of a

The passive is also customary in many expressions where a writer or
speakermaychoosetobevagueaboutassigningresponsibility:
Examples:Flight107hasbeencancelled.
Mistakesweremade.
Thecheckwaslostinthemail.
*SowhenisitOKtousethepassive?

whenthepassivevoiceisquiteuseful:
1.Toemphasizeanobject.Takealookatthisexample:
100votesarerequiredtopassthebill.
This passive sentence emphasizes the number of votes required. An
activeversionofthesentence("Thebillrequires100votestopass")wouldput
theemphasisonthebill,whichmaybelessdramatic.
2.Todeemphasizeanunknownsubject.Considerthisexample:
Over120differentcontaminantshavebeendumpedintotheriver.
If you don't know who the subject isin this case, if you don't actually
