trpno stanje

A verb form in which the subject receives the verb's action. Contrast with active voice.

The passive voice is used when the subject is being acted upon rather than doing something. It's created by taking the appropriate tense of the verb 'to be' and adding the past participle.

Example: The game was canceled due to rain.
