Is this a passive voice sentence you want your MTV?
No, it is in the active voice. You can tell that that is the case because the subject of the verb ('you') is also the doer of the action of the verb ('want'). You could not put that particular sentence into the passive voice, but here is another pair of sentences to illustrate the difference: 'My sister ate the sandwich.' Active voice: the subject of the verb ('my sister') is also the doer of the action of the verb ('ate'). 'The sandwich was eaten by my sister.' Passive voice: the subject of the verb ('the sandwich') is the recipient, not the doer, of the action of the verb ('was eaten'). The passive voice typically follows this construction: Subject of verb - relevant form of the verb 'to be' - past participle of main verb - the word 'by' - object of verb. This is noticeably different from the typical active voice construction of Subject - verb - object. More examples illustrating the above pointers: 'Mary's parents will collect her from college tomorrow.' 'Mary will be collected from college by her parents tomorrow.' 'I am finishing that project.' 'That project is being finished by me.'
