Question

She sings a song. Change into passive voice

Answer 1

Hint: A subject who acts on the verb is the subject of an active voice sentence. In passive voice, a subject benefits from the action of a verb. The verb acts on the subject in the passive voice.

Complete answer:
The active voice is a grammatical concept that describes sentences in which the subject of the sentence is the one who is actively carrying out the verb's activity. The link between the action of a sentence and the one (or ones) performing (or not doing) the action is classified as a voice in grammar. The subject of the sentence is the receiver of the verb's action in active voice, but the subject of the sentence is the recipient of the verb's action in passive voice. Consider the following scenario:

Active voice: The girl ate the apple.
Passive voice: The apple was eaten by the girl.

A verb is considered to be in the passive voice when it operates on the subject of a phrase. The ball (the subject) gets the verb's action in "The ball was thrown by the pitcher," for example, and was thrown in the passive voice.

Following this rule, in the above sentence,
In a passive voice, the subject becomes the object, and the object becomes the subject. In the passive sentence, we employ being with the past participle form of the primary verb if the statement is in the past continuous tense.

Thus, the sentence becomes: A song was being sung by her.

Note: Some rules of Active/Passive voice are:
- To convert to passive voice, find the (S+V+O) subject, verb, and object in the active phrase.
- Replace the object and subject in the active and passive sentences, such that the active sentence's object becomes the passive sentence's subject.
- In passive voice, the subject is not always used; for example, if the phrase makes sense without it, the subject might be removed.
