Active / Passive

Mr. / Girgis

Sentences can be heard, listened to, read and written in active voice or passive voice. Therefore, tenses also have "active forms" and "passive forms." You must learn to recognize the difference between both of them to speak English perfectly.

Active Form

In active sentences, the thing doing the action is the subject

of the sentence and the thing receiving the action is the

object. Most sentences are active.

[Thing doing action] + [verb] + [thing receiving action]

Passive Form

In passive sentences, the thing receiving the action is the

subject of the sentence and the thing doing the action

is optionally included near the end of the sentence.

You can use the passive form if you think that the thing

receiving the action is more important or should be

emphasized.

You can also use the passive form if you do not know who

is doing the action or if you do not want to mention who is

doing the action.
