What is passive voice?

A sentence is written in the passive voice when it emphasizes the receiver of the action rather than the performer. In other words, the subject of the sentence is not the one performing the action expressed by the verb.

The structure of the passive voice is basically:

  • Subject + to be + main verb (past participle) + by + agent

Take a look at the examples below to better visualize the passive voice:

  • Active voice: The cat ate the fish.
  • Passive voice: The fish was eaten by the cat.

  • The team was supported by the Firefighters’ Association.
  • The food had been delivered by 6 p.m. to the banquet hall.
