Usage notes
In most cases, passive voice is instead accomplished using a "due to" construction. Instead of:
- Đồ giải khát được cung cấp bởi Hoa.
- Refreshments are being provided by Hoa.
it is considered less awkward to use:
- Đồ giải khát do Hoa cung cấp.
- Refreshments are due to Hoa providing [them].
