Defination
passive voice
Passive voice is a sentence that makes an
object become a subject. The passive voice
function is to show interest in the object that is
being acted on and not the object that is doing
the action.
Formula
passive voice

Example:
Formula passive voice Laura am called by
Passive:S+tobe+V3+O mrs.tuti
When rewriting The object of the active sentence
becomes the subject of the passive
active sentences sentence.
The form of the verb is the appropriate
in passive voice, form of to be (the tense of the active
voice main verb) + the past participle.

note the The subject of the active sentence


becomes the object of the preposition
"by" in the passive sentence (or is
following: dropped.)
Conclusion
Passive voice is a structure where
the subject receives the action
instead of performing it. It is used
when we don't know the doer of the
action, when we don't want to
appear accusative, or when we
want to be objective. This structure
is often used in scientific texts or
news stories.
