★ A verb is in the active voice if the subject is the doer of the action.
★ A verb is in the passive voice if the subject is the reciever of the action.
Take these examples:
1. Rani wrote the letter.
2. The letter was written by Rani.
Note:- Both the sentences express same meaning.
★ But, In sentence 1, the subject (Rani) is the doer of action;thus the verb (wrote) is considered to be in the Active Voice.
★In sentence 2, the subject (the letter) is the reciever of action; thus the verb (was written) is considered to be in Passive Voice.
