Alphabet of Irregular Verbs

In passive speech, the subject is acted upon by the verb.  The first person passive is a mode of speaking without agency, of reporting events and happenings without the ability to control or direct.  It is speech connected to femininity, religion, the animation of the surrounding world and our use of nature. 
"One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman." Simone de Beauvoir
I am awoken
I am been
I am blown
I am burnt
I am cast
I am caught
I am seen
I am spun
I am woven
