- 22:2122:21, 11 May 2020 diff hist −464 Voice (grammar) Removed the following explanation; inaccurate— "For example: We enjoyed the trip is transitive and in active voice. The trip was enjoyed by us is transitive and in passive voice. She hurried home is not transitive and so has no voice. But if she hurried the children home, that's transitive and active voice." —When transformed into the passive the verb is no longer transitive (see main EN wikipedia page /intransitive_verb for a fuller explanation). claim that not transitive= no voice also false. Tags: references removed blanking Visual edit
- 22:1322:13, 11 May 2020 diff hist +7 Voice (grammar) Changed for accuracy of phrasing: it's not that the distinction between active and passive only exists in the case of a transitive verb; it is that only transitive verbs can be made passive (i.e., an intransitive verb is still in the active voice, so the distinction between voices still applies). Tag: Visual edit
- 22:1122:11, 11 May 2020 diff hist +205 Voice (grammar) Changed opening sentence for accuracy. Voice is about the relationship between events and participants, not the relationship between subject and object. Added citation for this change. Tag: Visual edit
