Active voice means putting the actor with the action. Passive voice: The man was stung by a bee. (The word "by" is a clue that it is passive.) Active voice: A bee stung the man. (The bee is the actor-- a bee stings.) Passive voice: The phone bill was paid by me. Active voice: I paid the phone bill. Active voice is natural, direct, but makes the actor do the action which makes the sense clear.
"You leave your cares behind" is active voice.
No. "You had a good time" is active voice. Subject+verb+object=active voice. "A good time was had by you" is passive voice. Object+form of be+past participle+subject=passive voice.
Active voice, passive voice, and middle voice are the three main forms of voice in grammar. In active voice, the subject performs the action. In passive voice, the subject receives the action. In middle voice, the subject acts upon itself.
To change passive voice to active voice, identify the object of the passive sentence and make it the subject of the active sentence. Then, identify the subject of the passive sentence and make it the object of the active sentence. Finally, rewrite the sentence using the active verb form. For example, "The book was read by John" (passive) can be changed to "John read the book" (active).
"The policeman chased after Fred" is active voice.
Passive. The active form would be "The winger scored a try."
It is in the active voice.
In active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action, while in passive voice, the subject is acted upon by the verb. Active voice is generally more direct and engaging, while passive voice is often used to shift the focus onto the recipient of the action.
To change a sentence from active voice to passive voice, move the object of the active sentence to the beginning, followed by the verb in the past participle form and the subject at the end with "by" if needed. To change a passive sentence to active, identify the subject of the passive sentence, move it to the position of the subject in the active voice, and make the original subject the object of the active sentence.
To change a sentence from active to passive voice, move the object of the active sentence to the subject position in the passive sentence and add a form of the verb "to be" along with the past participle of the main verb. For example, "I ate the cake" in active voice becomes "The cake was eaten by me" in passive voice.
