Active and Passive Voice in English Cheat Sheet
My personal cheat-sheet of English passive and active voice in different tenses
It is not an introductory tutorial for novice, a how-to or even a learn-to, to English passive and active forms, as it’s obvious from lack of comprehensiveness in cases such as “auxiliary verbs”, in the following section. It’s just my personal cheat-sheet which I’ve found recently, in one of my subdirectories. Some may find that useful. To find a guide tutorial on the subject, refer to Oxford and Cambridge resources.
