B2Hungarian avoids true passive. Instead uses: third person plural (indefinite agent), -ódik/-ődik (reflexive passive), -ható/-hető (can be done).

B2Yoruba has no morphological passive. Instead, it uses: subjectless constructions (wọ́n... 'they/one'), topicalization, or the verb di (become) for resulting states. Context determines the agent.
