Voices of the Verb


   In grammar, the voice of a verb describes the
    relationship between the action (or state) that
    the verb expresses and the participants
    identified by
    its arguments (subject, object, etc.).
Active Voice
   The active voice is the "normal" voice. This is
    the voice that we use most of the time.
   Subject + verb + object
   In the active voice, the object receives the
    action of the verb:

           Subject       Verb         Object

            Cats          eat           fish
Passive Voice

   In the passive voice, the subject receives the action
    of the verb.
   The structure of the passive voice is very simple:
         subject + auxiliary verb (be) + main verb (past
         participle)
   The main verb is always in its past participle form.
   We use the passive when we want to make
    the active object more important.
   Note that we always use by to introduce
    the passive object.
Passive Voice
