🎶 Verse 1 (Active Voice)
👩🏫
In active voice, the subject does the deed,
Like “The cat chased the mouse,” oh yes indeed!
The doer comes first, then action is shown,
It’s clear and strong — the voice we own!
📚
Structure: Subject + Verb + Object
Example: The chef cooks the meal. พ่อครัวทำอาหาร
🎶 Chorus
🎤
Who’s doing what? That’s the voice!
Active is loud, passive is choice!
Move that object, flip the game,
Passive voice will shift the frame!
🎶 Verse 2 (Passive Voice)
👨🏫
In passive voice, we flip the line,
“The mouse was chased” — it’s still just fine.
The object comes first, the verb is changed,
Add “by the cat,” now it’s rearranged.
📚
Structure: Object + Verb to be + Past Participle (+ by + Agent)
Example: The meal is cooked by the chef. อาหารถูกทำโดยพ่อครัว
🎶 Bridge
🎸
Use passive when the doer’s unknown,
Or not important — leave it alone!
Like “The song was sung,” but by who?
It still sounds great — that much is true!
📚
Example: The letter was sent yesterday. จดหมายถูกส่งเมื่อวานนี้ (No need to say who sent it!)
🎶 Final Chorus
🎤
Who’s doing what? That’s the voice!
Learn the forms and make the choice.
Active is bold, direct and clear,
Passive is smooth when details disappear.
🎶 Outro
📘
Active or passive, both have a place,
In every sentence that you embrace.
Just think of the role the subject will play,
And choose your voice in the perfect way!
