The passive voice is formed by rearranging the usual subject of a sentence to the end, making it the agent in a passive voice structure, while the object transitions to become the new subject. Although the agent performs the action of the verb, the structure emphasizes the action more than the doer of the action. For instance:
In an active sentence: subject + verb +object
I consume pizza every day.
Converting to passive: object + verb + agent
Pizza was consumed by me.
In some instances, the agent may not be identified in the passive voice due to its lesser significance.
Now that we know how to formulate it, let's transform these sentences from active to passive:
