Active and Passive Voice.
Sama seperti bahasa Indonesia, dalam bahasa Inggris juga terdapat kalimat aktif dan kalimat pasif. Penggunaan kedua kalimat ini tentu akan membingungkan bagi siswa yang baru belajar bahasa Inggris karena terdapat peraturan grammar yang mesti diikuti pada setiap jenis tenses.
Dalam artikel ini kita akan membahas tuntas setiap penggunaan kalimat aktif dan pasif secara berurut dalam setiap tenses. Jadi urain ini bisa menjadi rujukan dasar buat teman-teman yang baru belajar bahasa Inggris. Kita mulai saja ya.
PERBEDAAN
Kalimat aktif adalah kalimat yang menunjukkan subject melakukan sebuah tindakan. Dalam bahasa Indonesia , kalimat ini bisa dikenali dengan penggunaan awalan me- dan beberapa ada juga penggunaan awalan ber- .
Sedangkan kalimat passive menunjukkan subject sebagai sasaran dari tindakan atau menjadi penerima/penderita dari tindakan. Dalam bahasa Indonesia , kalimat passive bisa ditandai dengan adanya awalan di- dan beberapa ada awalan ter-.
Cara merubah bentuk kalimat aktif ke bentuk pasif adalah dengan menambahkan to be atau mengikuti rumus S+ to be + V3. Rumus ini berlaku untuk kedalam semua tenses.
Hal lain yang perlu teman-teman diketahui adalah penggunaan passive voice adalah untuk memberi tekanan penjelasan apa yang terjadi pada subject-nya bukan pada verb-nya.

Passive voice (PV) : The mouse is eaten by cat
