PASSIVE VOICE

Passive voice adalah suatu grammatical construction (bentuk gramatikal) dimana subject pada sentence (kalimat) atau clause (klausa) tidak melakukan aksi, melainkan menerima aksi atau ditindak lanjuti (receiver of action) oleh agent lain (doer of action) baik disebutkan ataupun tidak.

Sebaliknya, pada konstruksi active, subject pada sentence atau clause berhubungan langsung dengan verb dengan bertindak sebagai pelaku aksi. Kalimat aktif dapat ditransformasi menjadi pasif, namun hanya transitive verb (mempunyai direct object) yang dapat diberlakukan demikian.

Rumus Passive Voice

S + auxiliary verb + past participle

Rumus passive voice dapat dilihat pada tabel sebagai berikut di bawah ini.

Catatan:

    Auxiliary verb dapat berupa be (is, are, am, was, were) maupun kombinasi antara dua primary auxiliary(is/are being, was/were being, has/have been) maupun antara primary dengan modal (will be, will have been).

    Kombinasi auxiliary digunakan pada bentuk pasif pada tenses.

    Past participle yang digunakan berupa kata kerja transitive (memiliki direct object).

Contoh:

She can’t drive a car. (active voice, transitive), He always come on time. (active voice, intransitive)

    Perubahan bentuk dari base form ke past tense dan past participle secara regular maupun irregular.

Contoh:

play (base form) —> played (past participle), sing (base form) —> sung (past participle)

Contoh Passive Voice pada Auxiliary Verb be:

Pengecualian pada Transitive Verbs

Tidak semua transitive verb, kata kerja yang memiliki direct object, dapat dipasifkan. Beberapa kata kerja tersebut yang antara lain: have, become, lack, look like, mean, dll akan terdengar tidak wajar maknanya ketika dipasifkan. Beberapa contoh kalimat dari kata kerja tersebut adalah sebagai berikut.

Contoh:

·         I have a great new idea. —> tidak dapat dipasifkan dengan: A great new idea is had by me.

·         The snack contains aspartame. —> tidak dapat dipasifkan dengan: Aspartame is contained by the snack.
