语态, 动词的语态
(grammar) the form of a verb that indicates whether the subject does something or something is done to it
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.
- Active voice, on the other hand, is used when the subject of a sentence performs the action expressed by the verb.
另一方面，当句子的主语执行动词所表达的动作时，使用主动语态。
- In English grammar, the passive voice is used when the subject of a sentence is acted upon by the verb, rather than performing the action itself.
在英语语法中，当句子的主语被动词作用而不是执行动作本身时，使用被动语态。
- The teacher instructed the students to rewrite their essays in the active voice to make their writing more direct and engaging.
老师指导学生用主动语态重写他们的文章，以使他们的写作更直接和吸引人。
- In passive voice constructions, the object of the action becomes the subject of the sentence, often resulting in a less clear or concise expression of ideas.
在被动语态结构中，动作的宾语成为句子的主语，通常导致思想的表达不够清晰或简洁。
- Understanding when to use active or passive voice is an important aspect of writing effectively and communicating ideas clearly in English grammar.
理解何时使用主动或被动语态是英语语法中有效写作和清晰传达思想的一个重要方面。
