WHAT IS THE PASSIVE VOICE?

This time I would like to share my task about Passive Voice. Passive voice is the sentence with the object that the action is performed on. How to formulate the passive voice?

1.      Put the object of the verb at the beginning of the sentence.

2.      Conjugate the verb "to be" in the same tense as the active sentence.

3.      Put the main verb in past participle form (V3).

 

The formula is:  S + to be + Past Participle form

  

Passive voice is emphasized rather than its subject. Simply, the subject receives the action of the verb. 

For example: A book was written

The focus in this sentence is on the action of  a book that was written; however, the readers do not know who wrote the book.

Therefore, this is the link on youtube about Passive Voice lesson. Hopefully the video helpful to you. Happy watching  :)..
