What is the suffix for passive?

The suffix for passive is -ive.

However, it's important to note that not all passive words end in "-ive". While many do, there are also other suffixes like:

* -able: (e.g., breakable, قابل)

* -ible: (e.g., digestible, قابل هضم)

* -ed: (e.g., broken, broken)

* -en: (e.g., eaten, خورده)

* -ing: (e.g., being watched, دیده شدن)

It's more accurate to say that "-ive" is a common suffix for adjectives that indicate a state of being acted upon, which is related to the passive voice.
