Active Voice dan Passive Voice ( Definisi , Struktur dan Contoh)

A. ACTIVE VOICE DAN PASSIVE VOICE

1. Active Voice (Kalimat Aktif)

    Yaitu kalimat dimana subjek kalimat melakukan pekerjaan

    Contoh :

Aktif	Subject	Verb	Object
	Barli	Buys	a magazine.
	Barli	membeli	sebuah majalah.

2. Passive Voice (Kalimat Pasif)

    Yaitu kalimat dimana subjeknya dikenai suatu pekerjaan.

    Contoh :

Pasif	Subject	Verb	Object
	A magazine	is bought	by Barli.
	Sebuah majalah	Dibeli	oleh Barli

Jika kita membandingkan susunan kedua kalimat di atas, objek yang ada dalam kalimat aktif diubah menjadi subjek dari kalimat pasif. Hal itu juga tampak dalam susunan kalimat di bawah ini :

	Subject	Verb	Object
Aktif	Everybody	Drink	Orange juice.
Pasif	Orange juice	is drunk	by everybody.

B. STRUKTUR PASSIVE VOICE

     Secara umum, susunan kalimat pasif adalah :

S + To Be + V3

    Namun, bentuk waktu "to be" tersebut harus disesuaikan dengan tensesnya, perhatikan tabel berikut :

C. MENGUBAH KALIMAT AKTIF MENJADI KALIMAT PASIF

     Jika kita ingin mengubah kalimat aktif menjadi kalimat pasif, kita dapat melakukannya dengan mengubah objek kalimat aktifnya menjadi subjek kalimat pasif.

AKTIF = S + V + O

                            /

                          /

                        /

      PASIF =  S + To Be + V3

Ket : Objek pada kalimat aktif akan berubah menjadi subjek pada kalimat pasif.

Contoh 1 :

Aktif :

- Julie writes a letter to her friend.

  (Julie menulis sebuah surat untuk temannya.)

Pasif :

- A letter to her friend is written by Julie.

  (Sebuah surat untuk temannya ditulis oleh Julie.)

Contoh 2 :

Aktif :

- The postman will send the letters today.

  (Pak Pos akan mengirim surat-surat hari ini.)

Pasif :

- The letters will be sent by the postman today.

  (Surat-surat akan dikirim oleh Pak Pos hari ini.)
