passive voice

The passive voice in English is composed by two elements: passive voice and stative passive. The appropriate form is passive voice. Here is being discussed.

Let see the example:

Active :( A ) Anisah is a student. She studies English every night.

Passive :( B ) English is studied by Anisah every night.

This example is the appropriate form. The object of the active verb becomes the subject of the passive verb. “English” in (A) is becomes the subject in (B). A form and B form have the same meaning.

Subject + be + past participle
