               Active and Passive Voice
               An action of a subject, in relation to an object, is expressed in two ways. These two ways
               of expressing action of a subject are known as voices       . These voices are – active voice    and
               passive voice.
               For example:

                    I write a letter.                   (Active Voice)
                    A letter is written by me.          (Passive Voice)
               The structure of the same sentence changes when expressed as active voice or passive voice.

               The meaning of a sentence, either expressed as active voice or passive voice, remains the
               same.
               The structure of the same sentence, for both voices are as follows:
                    Active Voice   :  Subject + Verb + Object

                    Passive Voice   :  Object + Verb + Subject
