Passive Voice
Use the passive voice when the action of the sentence is more important than the agent (the person or thing doing the action) or when the agent is unknown. In the present tense form of the passive voice, the agent is not usually mentioned. Use the passive voice in the present tense to describe universal truths, processes, formal procedures, rules and regulations, etc. In the present tense, it is formed with is/are + past participle. Example: Fables are read all over the world. Use the passive voice in the past tense to talk about past actions, historical events, dicoveries, and inventions. It is formed with was/were + past articiple. Use the prepositon by when the agent of the verb is mentioned. Example: Fables were told by people to teach a lesson. 1. 2. 3. 4. In a fable, the reader an important lesson. (teach) The passive voice to describe universal truths. (use) Fables in many different countries.
