Look for the actor behind the sentence
Paste English prose to flag likely passive constructions: a form of “to be” followed by a past participle. Each match is a question, not an error. Passive voice is the right choice when the actor is unknown, obvious, or less important than the action. The check uses a pattern, so it will miss irregular forms and can flag adjectives.
