[Virtual Presenter] Welcome to our presentation on active and passive voice. In this presentation we will explore how the active and passive voice are used in grammar. We will discuss the differences between the two and provide examples of each. We hope you learn something new today and will subscribe to HCC Academy for further learning. Let's begin with part 1. What is the difference between active and passive voice?.

[Audio] Constructing sentences involves two methods of conveying the action: Active Voice and Passive Voice. Active voice is when the subject of the sentence carries out the action and passive voice is when the object of the sentence gets the action. For instance in the present tense "She writes a letter" is in active voice and "A letter is written by her" is in passive voice. In the past tense "She wrote a letter" is in active voice and "A letter was written by her" is in passive voice..

[Audio] The voice of a verb in English expresses whether the subject of the sentence has done the action or received it. Active voice places emphasis on the subject making a statement clearer. In contrast passive voice highlights the object of the action and is often used when it is not necessary to know the performer. For instance in "The watchman opens the door" the subject "watchman" is the doer and the verb is in active voice. When written in passive voice the sentence becomes "The door is opened by the watchman" putting emphasis on the object "door" and the agent performing the action "watchman" being secondary. Similarly in the sentence "He eats mango" the subject "he" is performing the action and the verb is in active voice. If written in passive voice the sentence reads "Mango is eaten by him" putting the focus on the object "mango" and the agent performing the action being secondary..

[Audio] In English grammar the active voice uses a verb in the form of a subject performing an action such as in the sentence “The car hit the tree.” The passive voice on the other hand uses a verb in the form of a subject receiving an action for example “The tree was hit by the car.”.

[Audio] Active and passive voice is an essential writing skill. It is used to alter the emphasis of the sentence from the subject that carries out the action the "actor" to the receiver of the action. In active voice the subject performs the action for instance "The student completed the assignment." In passive voice the object of the action becomes the subject and the actor is removed or expressed vaguely for instance "The assignment was completed." When utilized correctly active and passive voice can be an efficient tool for successful communication..

[Audio] The noun or pronoun performing the action is the subject of the sentence in active voice. For instance in the sentence "The watchman opened the door " 'the watchman' is the subject performing the action of 'opening the door'. Similarly in "He is eating mango " 'He' is the subject performing the action of 'eating mango'. Active voice gives more emphasis to the subject than the object in the sentence..

[Audio] "" "Active and passive voice" is a concept used in English both in writing and in speaking. To create a sentence it is important to identify if it is using active or passive voice. In active voice the subject of the sentence is the one behind the action expressed by the verb. For instance "The watchman opened the door." On the other hand passive voice is when the action expressed by the verb is done to the subject. For example "The door was opened by the watchman." To better comprehend active and passive voice it is useful to look at examples of both and practice making sentences with them..

When the action expressed by the verb is received by the subject, it is passive voice. Passive voice is used when the doer of the action is not known and the focus of the sentence is on the action and not the subject. Example: The door is opened by the watchman. mango is eaten by him...

[Audio] Active and passive voice" are an important part of the English language. The active voice is used when the subject of the sentence is performing the action. For example "I bought the book". In the passive voice the object becomes the subject of the sentence and the subject becomes the object. For example "The book was bought by me". The passive voice is often used for emphasis or when the subject of the sentence is unknown. It is important to be aware of the difference between active and passive voice so you can make sure you are using them correctly..

[Audio] Understanding the difference between active and passive voice is an important concept in grammar. In active voice the subject of the sentence is the one performing the action such as in the sentence "Joan sang a song." In passive voice the object of the sentence is the one acted upon as can be seen in the sentence "The song was sang by Joan." Knowing the differences between the two allows one to create more effective sentences and communicate their intended meaning..

[Audio] Active and passive voice" is an important grammar concept that can be used to make language more natural and effective. In active voice the subject of a sentence is the doer of the action while in passive voice the subject of a sentence is the receiver of the action. For example in active voice we might say "I play cricket" while in passive voice we would say "Cricket is played by me". Similarly for a group we would say "We play cricket" in active voice and "Cricket is played by us" in passive voice. Finally for an individual we would say "You play cricket" in active voice and "Cricket is played by you" in passive voice. Understanding the difference between active and passive voice and being able to identify it will help you become a better communicator..

[Audio] In active voice the subjects 'he' 'she' 'Ram' 'Hari' and 'they' perform the action 'play cricket'; whereas in passive voice the action 'play cricket' is the focus of the sentence and the subject has become 'cricket'..

[Audio] Understanding the difference between active and passive voice is very important. In active voice the subject performs the action expressed by the verb while in passive voice the action of the verb is performed on the subject. For example "I play cricket" is active voice while "Cricket is played by me" is passive voice. The same applies to sentences containing plural pronouns like "We play cricket" and "Cricket is played by us" "You play cricket" and "Cricket is played by you" "They play cricket" and "Cricket is played by them" "He plays cricket" and "Cricket is played by him" "She plays cricket" and "Cricket is played by her". This concludes the presentation on active and passive voice. Thank you for your time and attention..
