Passive mood can mean:
- A common, but wrong, term for the grammatical concept passive voice. Grammatical voices are verb-forms that indicate the relationship between the subject and the action expressed by the verb. By contrast, grammatical moods describe the relation of the verb to reality or intent in speaking.
- The mood or behaviour of an animal.
