Active voice is when the subject of a sentence performs the action, while passive voice is when the subject is acted upon by the verb. In active voice, the sentence structure follows a subject-verb-object pattern, whereas in passive voice, the object becomes the subject and the verb is conjugated as a form of "to be" plus the past participle of the main verb.
The passive voice of ''what do you do'' is "what is done by you?"
"Your name is not known by me." is passive voice.
Passive voice
In active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, while in passive voice, the subject receives the action of the verb. Active voice is generally more direct and clear, while passive voice is often used when the focus is on the recipient of the action or when the doer is unknown or less important. To change a sentence from active to passive voice, the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence, and the verb is changed to a form of "to be" plus the past participle.
