There are two main “voices” in English writing: the active voice and the passive voice. In the simplest terms, an active voice sentence is written in the form of “A does B.” (For example, “He sings the song.”) A passive voice sentence is written in the form of “B is done by A.” (For example, “The song is sung by him.”) Both constructions are grammatically sound and correct.
