352. Only transitive verbs are inflected for voice.
They have two voices — the active and the passive.
353. Definition. — A transitive verb is in the act- ive voice when its subject denotes the doer of the action.
Ccesar defeated Pompey.
Here Ccesar, the subject of the verb defeated, denotes the actor ; and, consequently, the verb is said to be in the activ...e voice.
354. Definition. — A transitive verb is in the pas- sive voice when its subject denotes the receiver of the action.
Pompey was defeated by Ccesar.
Here the subject, Pompey, denotes the receiver of the action ; and, consequently, the verb, was defeated, is in the passive voice.
By studying the foregoing examples, it will be seen that the object of the verb in the active voice becomes the subject when the verb is changed to the passive voice.
When the verb in the active voice is followed by an object and an adverbial objective (see 339), either one may become the subject of the passive.
