t0mWiNn31 Active & Passive
[ I like this shirt ] 1 because [ it washes well ] 2.
Both clauses 1 and 2 can be called active, but in some of the linguistics literature you will see that 2 is said to be in the "middle voice", neither active nor passive, because the shirt ("it") is not really an agent capable of washing anything.
