Passive – ISE II Trinity Grammar Function
Sentences can be active or passive.
Active Form
In active sentences, the thing doing the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing receiving the action is the object. Most sentences are active.
[Thing doing action] + [verb] + [thing receiving action]
Example
The doctor cures the patients
Robert opened the door
Passive Form
In passive sentences, the thing receiving the action is the subject of the sentence and the thing doing the action is optionally included near the end of the sentence.
You can use the passive form if:
- You think that the thing receiving the action is more important than the thing doing the action.
- The thing doing the action is unknown
[Thing receiving action] + [be] + [past participle of verb] + [by] + [thing doing action]
