What is the PASSIVE voice of "Do or die"

Solution(By Examveda Team)

First of all, not every verb in English can be converted into the passive voice. Only verbs that have objects (so-called "transitive verbs") can take the passive voice (and even then there are some exceptions). In this phrase, neither verb has a object. Therefore, conversion to the passive voice not possible.

Second, "do or die" is never used as a verb in English. It is most frequently used as an adjective phrase in front of a noun, as in "a do-or-die situation" or "a do-or-die attitude." It is sometimes used as an adverbial modifier to such adjectives as "determined" or "resolved." For example: "He entered the match determined to do or die."

Since "do or die" is never used as a verb (as explained above), it cannot be converted into the passive voice.
