Friday Funnies: The Passive Voice

An image of a twitter post. The poster, Rebecca Johnson, says that - I finally leaned how to teach my guys to ID the passive voice. If you can insert 'by zombies' after the verb, you have passive voice.
— From Grammarly, citing Rebecca Johnson et seq. on Twitter

If the details of active vs. passive voice are still eluding you, check out [livejournal.com profile] supercheesegirl's FG post on Passive Voice.

With apologies for the lateness!
