Active voice

When the subject of a sentence performs the verb’s action, we say that the sentence is in the active voice. Sentences in the active voice have a strong, direct, and clear tone. Here are some short and straightforward examples of active voice.

example:

1)Monkeys adore bananas.

2)The cashier counted the money.

3)The dog chased the squirrel.

Passive voice

A sentence is in the passive voice, on the other hand, when the subject is acted on by the verb. The passive voice is always constructed with a conjugated form of to be plus the verb’s past participle

example:

1)Bananas are adored by monkeys.

2)The money was counted by the cashier.

3)The squirrel was chased by the dog.
