Active and Passive Voices- Structuring and best use




To offer a grammatically tidy yet simple writing, I principally believe planning the layout of sentences is the major grounding… You can’t just move your writing with whatever you feel like putting to words and bet that could completely destroy your content’s structure… Everything, in practicality needs a neat design before execution.... Something in point of fact made me ponder why not write a post on Active and Passive voice…

Alright!!!! Jumping to my idea’s core, Active and Passive voices could sound vivid when you explain, but wait!!! That’s not your MISSION ACCOMPLISHE D moment…The employment needs a lot vivid vindication… You need to be exceptionally cautious when you embed voices into sentences else then it could be a BIG BOMB!!!!

I don’t want to just beat around the bush… To penetrate, I’ll flash my lights on ACTIVE VOICE initially … Active voice emphasizes the doer rather than the activity… Grammatically, it stresses the subject rather than the verb and it works the same for all tenses…Antipodal to Active, Passive pressurizes on activity and never the doer…That’s all with Passive and Active.. Instances are:

PAST TENSE

Simple Past

I bought a brand new car

A brand new car was bought by me

Past Progressive

Mike was eating his dinner hastily

Dinner was eaten by Mike Hastily

Past Perfect

Rachel had cleaned the living room

The living room had been cleaned by Rachel

Past Perfect Progressive

Norah had been eating cookies

(No Proper Passive form)

PRESENT TENSE

Simple Present

Rona skips her breakfast

Breakfast is skipped by Rona

Present Progressive

I am taking a pain killer

A pain killer is being taken by me

Present Perfect

Many athletes have drunk beer

Beer has been drunk by many athletes

Present Perfect Progressive

Hansel has been reading the book.

(No Proper passive Form)

FUTURE TENSE

Simple Future

He will do his homework

Homework will be done by him

Future progressive

Wight will be raising his kids in a careful environment

(No proper Passive)

Future perfect

The fire will have destroyed the forest

The forest will have been destroyed by the fire

Future Perfect Progressive

In an hour, the chef will have been cooking half the dinner

(No Proper passive Form)

However the last two forms of Future are hugely uncommon in modern English and many authors don’t prefer writing Future perfect and perfect progressive…

Once done with basic grammatical setup of active voices, it’s quite vital to understand how sentences need to be employed when it comes to passive voice… Chiefly, simple future is one of the best possible ways to transform your writings unfussy… A lot of traffic won’t literally fathom content with Future III and IV and some of the forms put a BIG NO to supporting Passive and some can exceptionally work though… However, patterns can conversationally differ with meaning…

Okay!! so its time to stumble on the way through best use of Active and Passive… Many accomplished writers and checker software would constantly advise you to stop incorporating passive… Well, that’s a finer way of making your content to the point and live… A small magic that would take you up the “wow!! Interesting” ladder… You also need to make your traffic feel “I am sure I’ve hit the right post. It’s got credibility, awesomeness, the real thrill and what not”… So, there’s something else waiting… Active is not always a Wonder worker… You’ll need areas with less stress on anger and command… And if you go with active again, it could sound harsher and a lot ruthless than what you’d potentially find in the passive form… Passive here, can turn the degree of severity to a comparatively softer tone… When you get to glance through a Whodunit you’ll understand how effective Passive is… If you have to sustain the secrecy beyond doubt, then its time you switch over to passive…. Another prominent usage of passive is when you are unsure of the doer in the active…

Well the instances are,

ANGER AND COMMAND:

ACTIVE:

I’ll fire you for what you have done

(Seems like it’s a harsh warning)

PASSIVE:

You’ll be fired for your activities

(This one’s polished and a lot more decent)

MYSTERY

PASSIVE:

When I walked through the path, I suddenly saw something scary; trees being violently shook, ground filled with strange air and personally penetrated by an eerie feeling.

(The best way to actually portray something scary)

UNSURE OF THE DOER IN THE ACTIVE:

PASSIVE:

When I got back from office, I found the drawing room in a mess, the plates thrown, dishes undone and clothes in a heap…

(You can’t say that someone in particular is solely responsible)

Responsibilities of active are quite easy with no much strain to comprehend… Active as conventionally, makes your content lively and refreshing… Offering a direct thrill to what you pen can map links to post popularity and vivid understandability…

Instances are:

Once deciding to trek Kurudi hills, all you need to do is reach foothills on time… Make sure you get back in time and If not you’ll see elephants around…

(If you turn this passive, the thrill goes away in a minute…)

With rules and forms complete in Passive and active voices, I guess I’ve given a reasonably good post quite making the surf ascertainable and entertaining…
