In English, we have two types of voice, active voice and passive voice.
☆Active voice
Focus is on the subject.
Sentence structure: Subject + Verb + Object
Example: I bake a cake.
☆Passive voice
Focus is on the action being received by the subject.
Sentence structure: Object + Verb + Subject
Example: A cake is baked by me.
There are five steps to change the voice of a sentence to passive voice:
- Identify the Subject, Verb and Object.
- Swap the positions of subject and object keeping the verb in its place.
- Change the verb to its third form.
- Add a helping verb before the main verb.
- Add "by" before the subject.
Let's understand the steps, using an example.
She owns a big house. (active voice)
A big house is owned by her. (passive voice)
Now, let's understand this voice change using steps.
- Subject is "She", verb is "owns" and object is "a big house".
- On swapping the positions of subject and object, we get, "A big house owns she".
- On changing the verb to its third form, we get, "A big house owned she".
- Helping verb "is" will be added in front of the main verb, making it as "A big house is owned her". (use her instead of she)
- Now, add "by" before the subject, making the sentence as, "A big house is owned by her".
Answer:
Active Voice: Manju and Rekha play football.
Passive Voice: Football is played by Manju and Rekha.
