Final answer:

Verbs in English have different moods and voices that affect the tone and style of writing.


Explanation:

Verb Mood: Verbs have different moods: indicative, imperative, and subjunctive. The indicative mood states facts or opinions, the imperative gives commands, and the subjunctive deals with hypothetical situations.

Voice: Verbs have two voices: active and passive. Active voice has the subject performing the action, while passive voice has the subject receiving the action.

Effect of Voice: Voice plays a crucial role in setting the atmosphere of a text. For example, using a casual voice can create a different mood compared to a formal voice.
