Translation of Passive Voice The passive voice is more commonly used in English than in Chinese, especially in the writings of science and technology. In the sentences in which the doers are not necessarily told or not known, the passive is used. And sometimes for the sake of connection of the context, there occurs the passive voice. Since the passive structure seldom appears in Chinese, many passive sentences in English have to be turned into active sentences in Chinese active sentences as many as possible. But the version must be made idiomatic and smooth, not ambiguous or abstruse (hard to understand). This is a problem which is worth our attention.

Studying the difference between Active and False Active, between Passive and False Active can help us obtain a better idea of the original and an accurate version.
