PASSIVE VOICE

 A. Definition

Passive voice is that form of verb how that something is done to the person or thin denoted by the subject. There are two kinds of verbs, transitive and intransitive. the verbs that need objects are called transitive, while others are intransitive. It is only transitive verbs are used passive. In changing a sentence from the active to the passive, the accusative becomes nominative, and the nominative is put into the accusative after by.

The “passive voice” is a grammatical construction in which the subject of a sentence or clause denotes the recipient of the action rather than the performer. Active voice is a more regular used in life everyday rather than passive voice. Passive voice is used because the object of active voice is more important rather than the subject. Many language critics and language-usage manuals discourage use of the passive voice. In English this advice is not usually found in older guides, emerging only in the first half of the twentieth century.

Example:

–        Active  : We fertilize the plants every 3 months

–        Passive    : The plants is fertilized by us every 3 months

According to the example above, we can see that:

  • The object in active voice (the plants) become subject in passive voice.
  • The subject in active voice (we) become object in passive voice. And there is change from subject pronoun ‘we’ become object pronoun ‘us’.
  • Verb1 (fertilize) in active voice become verb3 (fertilized) in passive voice.
  • Added tobe ‘is’ in front of verb3. Tobe that used depend on the subject in passive voice and tenses that used.
  • Added ‘by’ after verb3. but, if the object in passive voice assumed unimportant or not known, so the object is usually not used and so is ‘by’.
  • Special for progressive sentences (all continuous tenses) necessary add ‘being’ in front of verb3, if  not added “being”, the tenses will change, not progressive/continuous anymore.

According to the six above, the pattern of passive voice is:

Subject + Auxiliary + Verb 3 (Past Participle) + by + Object
