N OTE 1. Present Perfect Continuous, Future Continuous, Past Perfect Continuous are not normally used in the passive.

NOTE 2. Get is used in colloquial English instead of to be to express something happening by accident: He got hurt last Monday. (more usual than He was hurt last Monday).

2. U s a g e

The Passive Voice is used:

  1. when the agent (the person who does the action) is unknown, unimportant or obvious from the context: The door had been locked. (we don’t know who locked it – unknown agent) Repairs are being made on the runway. (by the builders – obvious agent)

  2. when we are interested more in the action than the agent, such as in news reports, formal notices, instructions, processes, headlines, advertisements etc.: The whole area was evacuated. (news report) Breakfast is served from 6.00 to 10.30. (formal notice)

  3. to make statements more formal or polite: My new dress has been ruined. (more polite than saying “You ruined my dress.”)

  4. to put emphasis on the agent: The Pyramids were built by the ancient Egyptians.
