Passive voice is a grammatical construction where the subject of the sentence is acted upon by the verb, rather than performing the action. In passive voice, the focus is on the object of the action, making it less direct and impactful than active voice. Passive voice typically uses a form of the verb "to be" along with the past participle of the main verb.
