Active voice is a writing technique in which the subject of the sentence is doing the acting, as opposed to passive voice in which the subject of the sentence is being acted upon.

Avoid passive voice.
The proper grammar in English is "was sent," as in "The letter was sent." However, most sentences that use this phrase are in what is called the passive voice. Passive voice means the writer used a helping verb, (is, are, was, were, have, has, be) with an action verb. Sent is the action. Passive sentences often include the word 'by'. The letter was sent by my mother. When writing or speaking, it's best to always strive for the active voice. You could easily change "The letter was sent" from passive to active voice by saying, "I sent the letter."
