What is "voice"?
Voice is a grammatical feature that indicates the relationship between the action of the verb and the participants in a sentence. In English, there are two primary voices: active and passive. In the active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, as in the sentence "The cat chased the mouse," where "the cat" is the doer of the action. In the passive voice, the subject receives the action, as in "The mouse was chased by the cat," where "the mouse" is acted upon. Voice is essential for emphasizing different aspects of a sentence, allowing speakers to highlight either the doer of the action or the receiver, thus shaping the focus and clarity of the information presented.
