Voice.

Question :

• Who gave you this pen?

Answer :

We are given a sentence and asked to change the voice of the sentence. So the answer after changing the voice :-

• This pen was given to you by whom?

The sentence was in the form :-

Subject + Verb + Object

After changing the voice the sentence turned to be :-

Object + Verb + Subject

So we can infer that such changes occur in pattern of sentence after change in voice.

Active voice :-

• When the subject in the sentence is doer of the action, the verb is said to be in Active voice. Here, the subject (doer) plays an important role.

Passive voice :-

• When the subject in the sentence is the receiver of the action , the verb is said to be in Passive voice. Here the subject (receiver) plays an important role.

Example :-

• I take care of my belongings (Active)
• My belongings are taken care of (by me.) ( Passive)
