Grammar की passive voice याद कीजिए: 'The ball was hit' में subject कुछ नहीं करता, काम उस पर होता है। Passive व्यक्ति भी ऐसा ही है — सब होने देता है, खुद प्रतिक्रिया नहीं देता। Active इसका उल्टा है।

Recall the passive voice in grammar. In 'The ball was hit', the subject does nothing; the action is done to it. A passive person is just like that: things happen to them and they do not respond. Active is its opposite.

Exam note
