Question

You have kept the rule but broken its spirit. Voice Change

Answer 1

Answer: rules have been kept but spirit has been broken by you.

Answer 2

The rule has been kept but its spirit has been broken by you.

• When the subject acts, the voice is active; when the subject receives the action, the voice is passive.
• The subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence. The components of both sorts of sentences are the same, but their forms are different.
• Passive sentences describe what happens to the person performing the activity, whereas active phrases indicate what happens to the person acting.
• The subject in the provided sentence is 'you', and the action is 'have kept the rule but broken its spirit.'
• The action will be the subject in the passive form of the supplied phrase, i.e. The rule has been kept but its spirit has been broken by you.
