When you find a direct object in a sentence, the sentence is written using _______________ voice

1 answer

When you find a direct object in a sentence, the sentence is written using active voice. In active voice constructions, the subject of the sentence performs the action and the direct object receives that action. For example, in the sentence "The cat (subject) chased (verb) the mouse (direct object)," the structure clearly shows the active relationship between the subject and the direct object.
