Passive participles express verbal action in either :ref:`passive voice<stem-voice-passive>` or
:ref:`reflexive voice<stem-voice-reflexive>`. Passive voice means that the person/thing described by the
participle receives the action expressed by the participle itself. Reflexive voice means that the person/thing described by
the participle both performs and receives the action expressed by the participle itself.
