PASSIVE VOICE

Adalah kalimat aktif yang subjek kalimatnya adalah pelaku sebuah tindakan, sedangkan kalimat pasif adalah kalimat yang subjeknya bukan pelaku suatu tindakan. Si subjek adalah si penerima akibat dari sebuah tindakan.

Contoh:

1. Aktif : Delya makan buah apel kemarin
Pasif : buah apel dimakan oleh delya kemarin

Rumus umum untuk membentuk suatu kalimat Pasif

Aktif : S + Verb 1 + Objek + dll
Pasif : Objek + to be + Verb 3 + ( by)+(subjek)+ dll

To be yang digunakan

1. Present : is, am, are
2. Past : was, were
3. Perfect : been (di depan have, has, atau had)
4. Future : be (setelah modals)
5. Continuous : being (di depan salah satu dari 7 to be di atas)

Hal-hal yang perlu diketahui dan diingat

1. Untuk menyatakan suatu kalimat dalam bentuk pasif, tenses tidak berubah. Tenses harus sama dengan kalau kita menyatakannya dalam bentuk aktif. Yang berubah hanya kata kerja-nya.

2. Kata kerja yang tidak memiliki objek (Kata Kerja Intransitif) tidak dapat diubah menjadi kalimat pasif, seperti, menangis, mendidih, terbit, dll.

Contoh-contoh kalimat aktif dan pasif

1. Bella writes a song (active)
2. A song was wrote by Bella (passive)
