Like other adjectives, you use it to modify a noun. Here's an example:
The passive teacher allowed the failing student to pass, and didn't even check over his records.
Keep in mind that passive doesn't always mean lazy.
'He was a worried boy.' In this sentence worried is describing the boy, therefore worried is an adjective.
The sentence "Sentences can be written in active and passive voices" is a declarative sentence written in passive voice.
The object from the active sentence goes to the subject position in the passive (only it is not called the subject in the passive sentence) egYouThe verb form for passive is be + past participle. In this example ( present continuous) it is not as straight forward as present simple or past simple but the verb phrase becomesare being watched.You are being watchedThe subject of the active sentence is called the agent in a passive sentence and can be left out of the passive sentence if you want. If you want to add the agent then you use by + agent:You are being watched by the teacher
The sentence is passive.
An adjective is a word that describes a noun or a verb. An example of a sentence that uses the word "abstract" in a sentence as an adjective would be: It is difficult for children to fully comprehend many abstract ideas.
Use of passive in a sentence would be, "His passive expression gave no clue to his inner emotions." Another example would be, "The man was a passive spectator to the ballgame."
Broken is a past participle verb therefore can not be used in the past simple tense. You could use it in the past passive like: The lamp was broken by the boy. This is a past passive sentence. Otherwise, verb 3 can not be used in a past simple sentence structure. Another way to use broken is as an adjective. The broken vase laid on the floor.
To change an active sentence to passive, identify the object in the active sentence and make it the subject in the passive sentence. Move the subject of the active sentence to the phrase with "by" and change the verb to its past participle form. To change a passive sentence to active, identify the subject in the passive sentence and make it the subject in the active sentence. Use an appropriate active verb to describe the subject's action and add the original object of the passive sentence as the direct object in the active sentence.
