Passive voice is....

<p>Passive voice is a grammatical construction in which the subject of the sentence receives the action of the verb, rather than performing the action. In passive voice, the focus is on the receiver of the action rather than the doer. The passive voice is formed by using a form of the verb "to be" (such as is, am, are, was, were) along with the past participle of the main verb.</p><p>For example:</p><ul><li>Active voice: The cat chased the mouse. (Subject - Verb - Object)</li><li>Passive voice: The mouse was chased by the cat. (Object - Verb - Subject)</li></ul><p>In the passive voice, the emphasis is on the mouse (the receiver of the action), and the doer of the action (the cat) becomes less prominent. Passive voice is often used when the doer of the action is unknown, less important, or the speaker/writer wants to shift the focus to the receiver of the action.</p>
