Passive Voice

Passive voice merupakan struktur kalimat penulisan dalam bahasa Inggris

yang mana subject (pelaku) dari kalimat tersebut dikenakan suatu pekerjaan.

assive voice tidak hanya ada dalam bahasa Inggris saja, dalam bahasa

Indonesia kita mengenal Kalimat Pasif dengan perubahan yang sangat simple

yaitu imbuhan di- / ter-. Misalkan Rini membaca sebuah novel (kalimat aktif)

novel dibaca oleh Rini (kalimat pasif).


Pola Active Passive
Perubahan active voice ke passive voice tidak semudah perubahan
kalimat aktif ke dalam kalimat pasif dalam bahasa Indonesia.

Pola:

S + Be + Verb-3 + By Agent

Ket:

S: Subjek

Be: To be
Verb-3: Kata kerja bentuk ketiga

By Agent: Pelaku

Contoh:

Rini reads Novel. (Active Voice)

[S] [V1] [Object]

Novel is read by Rini. (Passive Voice)

Dalam pembuatan kalimat passive voice, kita tidak akan lepas dengan

yang namanya tenses. Yup, karena dalam penentuan 'to be' pada kalimat

passive voice tergantung pada tenses kalimat aktifnya
