Active voice vs. passive voice When the subject is the doer of the action, the verb is in the active verb. Active voice: The Zebras surrounded the bus. When the subject receives the action, the verb is in the passive voice. Passive voice: The bus was surrounded by zebras.

When you switch between active and passive voices, the sentence changes in several ways: 1. The main verb is now a past participle, using a helping verb of to be Active: Mrs. Juru led the safari. Passive: The safari was led by Mrs. Juru. 2. The object of the verb becomes the subject in the sentence with the passive verb. Active: Her son drove the bus. Passive: The bus was driven by her son. 3. The subject of the sentence with the active verb often follows the word by in the sentence with the passive verb. Active: Mrs. Watts spotted a giraffe. Passive: A giraffe was spotted by Mr. Watts. 4. A sentence with a verb in the passive voice does not always show the doer of the action. Active: Many wild animals were photographed.

No intransitive verb (action or linking) is ever in the passive voice.
