USING THE AUXILIARY VERB โBEโ
The passive voice is formed by using a form of the auxiliary verb โbeโ (be, am, is, are, was,
were, being, been) followed by the past participle of the main verb.
Active Passive
He loves me. I am loved.
We took our children to the circus. The children were taken to the circus.
A thief stole my money. My money was stolen.
Notice how the โbeโ auxiliaries change the meaning of the verbs from action to condition or
from โdoingโ to โbeing.โ
He remembers his grandmother. (โheโ is doing an action: remembering)
His grandmother is remembered. (โsheโ is in a condition: being remembered)
In this way, the past participle functions very much like an adjective; it describes the subject.
The woman is pretty. She is a pretty woman
The woman is married. She is a married woman.
