Menjelaskan Rumus Passive Voice dengan singkat
Rumus utama dari Passive Voice adalah:
Penjelasan tentang To be
Simple Present Tense: To be yang digunakan yaitu: is/ am/ are (ingat! to be ini akan diberikan hanya pada Passive Voice)
note:
A= Active
P= Passive Voice
- A: Jack plays games.
P: Games are played by Jack.
Pertanyaan: Mengapa tidak menggunakan is, bukankah Subjek nya adalah Jack?
Jawab: Benar Subjek nya adalah Jack tetapi ingat! Jack adalah Subjek untuk kalimat Aktif bukan Passive Voice. Sedangkan Subjeck untuk Passive Voice adalah Games. Karena Games adalah Plural maka harus menggunakan to be are.
- A: Jack plays game.
P: Game is played by Jack.
Pertanyaan: Mengapa kalimat ini menggunakan is? bukankah kalimatnya pun sama seperti kalimat pertama diatas yang seharusnya menggunakan are.
Jawab: Benar kalimat aktif pada no 2 memang sama dengan kalimat pertama tetapi bila di perhatikan lebih jelas…lihat! ada perbedaan pada kata Games (kalimat ke-1) Game (kalimat ke-2) ini berarti akan ada perubahan to be karena Game adalah Singular. oleh sebab itu Game akan menggunakan is sebagai to be. Contoh kalimat ke-1 dan ke-2 memiliki Subjek sama pada kalimat Aktif tetapi tidak untuk kalimat Passive Voice.
- A: She makes a cup of tea.
P: A cup of tea is made by her.
Pertanyaan: Mr, mengapa She berubah menjadi her?
Jawab: Nah itu dia, She adalah sebuah Subjek dan Her memegang peranan sebagai Objek. Jadi apabila She pada kalimat aktif maka untuk Passive Voice nya She akan berubah menjadi her. Mengapa? ini disebabkan karena She mengalami perubahan struktur dan posisi.
Gampangnya adalah She berada di depan atau awal kalimat, She tidak bisa berada di belakang kalimat tetapi She akan berubah menjadi her bila berada di posisi belakang. Dan ini akan berlaku untuk semua Subjek.
Berikut ini adalah Subjek nya:
I – menjadi: me
You – menjadi: you
We – menjadi: us
They – menjadi: them
He – menjadi: him
She – menjadi: her
Jack – menjadi: Jack/ him
May – menjadi: May/ her
