  ACTIVE AND PASSIVE VOICE Definitions Example
• 3.
  • Definition Active voiceis a grammatical voice common in many of the world's languages. It is the unmarked voice for clauses featuring a transitive verb in nominative- accusative, including English and most other Indo- European languages.

  Active voice isused in a clause whose subjects expresses the agent of the main verb. That is, the subject does the action designated by the verb. A sentence whose agent is marked as grammatical subject is called an active sentence. Active sentences are commonly used in newspaper articles to make the writer seem objective and non-intrusive, as they make the text appear factual and detached, although in reality they often also help to disguise subjective influences on the reader.

  Active voice isclearer and more direct, because it puts the doer of the action first and follows a logical order: Doer of action + action + receiver of action (if any) Also, an active voice sentence is always shorter than the same sentence in passive voice. And of course, active voice is active—so it makes our writing more dynamic and energetic. For these reasons, it is usually better to write in active voice—and to rewrite any passive voice sentences to make them active.

  Passive voice isa grammatical voice common in many of the world's languages. In a clause with passive voice, the grammatical subject expresses the theme or patient of the main verb – that is, the person or thing that undergoes the action or has its state changed. This contrasts with active voice in which the subject has the agent role.

  In passive clauses,what would otherwise be expressed by the object of the verb comes to be expressed by the subject, while what would otherwise be expressed by the subject is either not expressed at all, or is indicated by some adjunct of the clause. Thus transforming an active verb into a passive verb is a valence- decreasing process, because it transforms transitive verbs into intransitive verbs. This is not always the case.
