Conversion from active to passive voice

CA63

The syntactic structure of the active sentence plays an important role in the conversion of a sentence from the active to the passive voice. If there is an accusative object, the conversion follows the rules of the personal passive. Otherwise, the rules of the impersonal passive are applied.
