Passive voice
To identify the passive and active voice in English sentences, it's crucial to understand the structure and function of verbs. In the active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, while in the passive voice, the subject receives the action. For example, in the active voice, "The dog chased the cat," "the dog" performs the action. In the passive voice, "The cat was chased by the dog," "the cat" receives the action. The auxiliary verbs "to be" and "to have" are used to form the passive voice, along with the past participle of the main verb. Identifying the voice in a sentence involves observing who performs the action and how the sentence is structured.
