<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

Passive voice is a form of sentence in which the subject of the sentence receives the action, not taking action. Unlike active voice that focuses on the party doing the action (doer of the action), this form is more focused on the party or object that receives the result of an action (receiver of the action).

Generally, active sentences can be transformed into passive sentences in the form of active sentences containing transitive verbs (verbs that require direct objects) such as make, bring, buy, write and so on. Conversely, passive sentences that contain intransitive verbs (verbs that do not require direct objects) such as cry, swim, go, arrive, and die cannot be converted into passive sentences.

However, if the intransitive verbs are followed by prepositions, it is possible that the sentence can be converted into passive sentences but the passive sentences formed will be very rigid.

Passive voice is used to show interest in someone or object that is subject to action and not someone or object that is doing the action. So, the most important thing or person will be the subject of the sentence. Sometimes, we use passive sentences because we don't know or don't want to state who is doing the action. Passive sentences are often used in formal texts. Turning it into an active sentence will make your writing clearer and easier to read. If you want to say who or what is doing an action in a passive sentence, we use the preposition by. When we find out who did the action and are interested in the subject, we better change it to active sentences.

  • Passive infinitive sentences are used after verb modal (verb capital), and other verbs are usually followed by the infinitive.
  • The gerund is used after the preposition, and the verb is usually followed by a gerund.
  • To be born is a passive form and is usually used in the past tense form. However, in some cases, present or future tense can be used.

Why are you a freaky idoit
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

This is a strange question, I have found. Everyone, in fact, is different so for a person to be an idiot is rather relative. Personally, I am an "idoit" in certain subjects of my life, like socialization. Sometimes, though, I am rather good at what I do.
