Introduction to Active and Passive Voice with Rules and Examples
Photo Source: slidesharecdn.com

What is Acting Voice?

Active Voice is all those Sentences in which the Subject Remain Active or all those Sentences in which the verb Depends on the Subject.
For Example:
  1. Sachin is Playing with Passion and Determination this time.
  2. Afridi hit more sixes today as compared to the Previous Match.
  3. Maria Won the USA Open Championship many times in her Career.
In the Above Sentences, the Subjects (Sachin, Afridi, maria) are Active and Performing as the backbone of the sentences, Hence all these sentences will be called active voices.

What is Passive Voice?

We use Passive Voices when we don't want to show the Subject or the subjects have less importance to show in the sentence or the Subject is not active in the sentence.
For Example:
Three People injured in the gun Fight, Now in this Sentence it's not important who were the Gunmen who injured the three men, but the important is the three People who get injured. So all those Sentences in which the Subjects are not active or have less value are called Passive Voices.

Rules of Active and Passive Voice:

The Following are the main Rules of Active and Passive Voice Sentences.
  1. The subject will Become Object.
  2. The Object will become Subject.
  3. Third Form of the Verb.
  4. Change the Helping verb according to the Tense of the Active Voice Sentence.
  5. Use of by just before the Object.
  6. He Will change to Him.
  7. She to her
  8. They to them.
  9. I to me.
  10. We to us.
  11. You to yours.

Always Keep in Mind that the Passive Voice will change according to the Tense of the Active Voice. If the Active Voice is in the Past Perfect Tense so the Passive Voice will also change According to the rules of Past Perfect.

Example Sentences:

Active Voice: She Always Makes Disturbance.
Passive Voice: Disturbance has always been Made by Her.

Active Voice: He Made a new mistake.
Passive Voice: A new Mistake was made by Him.

Active Voice: She Reads a very Horror Novel.
Passive Voice: A very Horror Novel read by Her.
