C. DEFINITION AKTIVE AND PASSIVE SENTENCES
Aktive sentence is the verb from used when the subject of a sentence does the action.
Passive sentence is the verb from used when the subject of a sentence is affected by the
action.
Active sentences
If we want to form an active sentence,we do not need any special regulations, because there is
no special key. Just pay attention with the tenses. As we know that English has movement
verb that we have to know well.
Passive sentences
The passive sentence has special ways to form it. Beside we have to pay attention with
movement of verbs, we have to give special attention with such thing. According to Mas’ud,
there are four ways form passive sentences.
1. Put an object of active sentence in the beginning of passive sentence (object of active
sentence becomes subject in passive sentence).
Example : he ate banana (active)
Banana was eaten by him (passive)
2. If in the active sentence do not have auxiliary (to be), so just add to bethat is suitable with
the subject of passive sentence and the tenses.
Example : Jojo invited them (active)
They were invited by Jojo (passive)
3. Put the main verb from active sentence after auxiliary verb (to be) in past participle from.
Example : My sister is cooking rice (active)
Rice is being read by my sister (passive)
4. Put the preposition by after the main verb before object in passive sentence. (in some cases,
the preposition by can be omitted when it is not known or not important to know exactly who
performs the action).
Example : This room was painted yesterday
To be + Past Participle
2. Present Continuous
Active Passive
(+) Sany is taking pen. (+) Pen is being taken by Suny.
(-) Sany is not taking pen. (-) Pen is not being taken by Suny.
(?) Is Suny taking pen? (?) Is pen being taken by Suny?
3. Present Perfect

(+) He has open the window. (+) The window has been opened by
him.

able to read English literature, listening to radio broadcasts overseas, and watching the
movies the other sciences. Thus, in the end we can master the knowledge-knowledge in all
fields.
Each language must have rules or we often refer to as the grammar of each, as well as in
English, there are many rules that must be considered in their use, especially in the field of
writingnya. Therefore, the author tries to present some rules of the many rules of English, in
addition to fulfilling the task of English subjects.

books or from the source of our teachers. Hopefully all provide benefits for us. If there is an
error writing or words in this paper, the authors apologize profusely.
CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
Di atas tadi ada istilah Orang Ketiga Tunggal, maksudnya gini: Orang ketiga
adalah orang yang kita bicarakan, yang kita omongin. Sedangkan orang pertama
ya yang bicara. Orang kedua lawan bicara. Tunggal ya satu. Jadi orang ketiga
tunggal adalah orang yang kita bicarakan dan satu saja dia itu. Misalnya kita
berdua ngomongin John Scoping. Yang ngomong saya, yang dengar Anda, yang
dibicarakan John Scoping (orang ketiga tunggal). Faham kan?
Tidak bisa LearnES, mengapa? ya memang begitu!. Tetapi yang ini malah
tambah ES:
John Scoping goES to School (tambah ES).
Rumusnya:
I am
She is, He is, It is, John is, Mufli is, dan sebagainya.
Present Continuous Tense ini digunakan jika kita menekankan pada “Sekarang”
nya itu. Kalau kegiatan yang berulang-ulang seperti “I go to work everyday”
nggak pake Present Continuous Tense tetapi Present Tense saja.
Berikut ini contoh kalimat Present Continuous Tense sesuai dengan rumus
diatas:
Mudah saja kalimat Negatifnya, tinggal tambahkan NOT setelah Tobe. Ingat
rumusnya kan? S + Tobe + Not + Verb+ing.
Contoh:
Bisa juga menggunakan Kata Ganti Penanya seperti What, Where, Which, Why,
Who dan sebagainya dalam kalimat tanya ini. Contohnya begini:
-What are you writing now? (Lagi nulis apaan kamu sekarang?)
Begitulah basicnya tentang Present Continuous Tense ini. Inti dari Continuous
itu adalah “Sedang”, atau katakanlah sedang berlanjut (seperti arti katanya),
sedang terjadi.
Tenses yang satu ini digunakan untuk menyatakan suatu kejadian, peristiwa atau apalah
namanya, yang SUDAH terjadi dan MASIH berlangsung bahkan sangat mungkin AKAN
berlanjut. Dari dulu hingga kini bahkan nanti. Kata “sudah” atau “dari dulu” disini bisa saja
waktunya kemarin, 2 jam lalu, se-abad lalu, bisa juga beberapa menit yang lalu. Intinya
kejadian yang hendak diungkapkan dalam Present Pefect Continuous Tense ini sebenarnya
mirip dengan Present Continuous Tense, hanya saja penekannya bukan pada saat ini,
melainkan pada periode waktunya tadi itu: sudah, masih dan akan.
Rumus Present Perfect Continuous Tense
Kita coba dengan contoh, bentuk Present Tensenya begini: “Saya tinggal disini”, bahasa
Inggrisnya: “I live here”. Kita coba masukkan ke Present Perfect Continuous Tense.
“Saya sudah tinggal disini 2 tahun”. Sudah disini ? masih kan? besok belum pindah kan?
Untuk kondisi ini kita gunakan Present Perfect Continuous Tense ini, I have been living here
for 2 years.
Tetapi kalau waktu Anda ngomong itu Anda sudah tidak tinggal disini lagi, misalnya baru
saja pindah maka gunakan penekanan pada SUDAHnya saja seperti pada pelajaran Present
Perfect Tense, I have lived here…
Tetapi lagi,
Kalau Anda ingin mengatakan “tinggal disini” tersebut dulu, misalnya 2 tahun yang lalu
tinggal disini, maksud saya anda tidak menekankan pada USAInya anda tinggal itu tetapi
fokus pada 2 tahun yang lalu itu, maka gunakan Past Tense saja: I lived here 2 years ago.
Running Vnet Busienss diatas maksudnya “menjalankan bisnis Vnet” ya, bukan melarikan.
2.1.2. FUTURE
[
Masih ingat pembagian Tenses dalam garis besar kan? ada 3 besar Tenses yaitu:
Past, Present dan Future (Dulu, Kini, Nanti).
Setiap Future pasti pakai WILL atau SHALL, artinya AKAN. Namun ada juga
yang namanya Past Future Tense nanti. Karena Past maka Will dan Shall nya
pakai past juga yaitu “Would”, nanti kita pelajari lebih dalam di Past Future
Tense. Oh ya, sesudah Will atau Shall atau Would pastilah diikuti bentuk 1 baik
itu kata kerja atau kata kerja bantu.
Rumus Future Tense
Positif: S + will + V1
Negatif: S + will + not + V1
Tanya: Will + S + V1
Tense yang satu ini berbicara tentang suatu peristiwa yang “Sedang Terjadi”
juga sebagaimana Present Continuous Tense, tetapi bedanya dalam Future
Continuous Tense maka “Sedang” nya itu bukan sekarang melainkan besok,
akan datang, nanti.
Jadi, “sedang terjadi” itu tidak hanya bisa sekarang loh, bisa saja belum
terjadi sekarang tetapi sedang terjadi besok. Fahami benar hal ini agar Future
Continuous ini dapat Anda mengerti dengan tuntas dan dapat menggunakannya
tanpa berpikir lagi nanti :)
Contohnya begini:
Anda telepon saya dan bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 9 besok. Wah saya gak
bisa terima tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 9 itu saya akan sedang
berenang. Jadwal saya renang itu 8:30 sampai 10:00. Jadi jam 9 besok itu
sedang renang kan? kapan renangnya? besok!. Itulah arti “sedang tetapi akan”
ini. Sekarang Anda faham 100 persen kan? Dalam hal ini kita gunakan Future
Continuous Tense ya: “I will be swimming at 9 tomorrow, You may not meet
me at home”.
Contoh:
- Kamu sedang akan pergi ke sekolah pukul 7 besok pagi
Seperti saya ceritakan dalam setiap pelajaran Tenses Bahasa Inggris yang
mengandung kata “Continuous” maka selalu pakai kata kerja bentuk ING, Verb
+ Ing. Setiap kata kerja atau kata kerja bantu yang mengikuti WILL pasti
bentuk-1. Mana bentuk kesatu disana? Di “be” nya itu.
Dan setiap ada to be, baik itu be itu sendiri atau am, is, are, was, were, been
maka kata kerjanya pasti pakai ING.
Coba buat beberapa lagi contoh Anda sendiri untuk kalimat positif dalam
bentuk Future Continuous Tense ini, ya bahasa Inggris dong, kalau bahasa
Indonesia tak terasa tenses itu karena kata kerjanya tidak berubah.
Loh katanya tadi Future Continuous Tense ini digunakan untuk menyatakan
sesuatu yang sedang akan terjadi di masa datang, ini yang negatif kan berarti
TIDAK akan sedang terjadi dong? Salah dong?, ini kan bentuk negatifnya !
Kalimat tanya dalam bentuk Future Continuous Tense juga gampang sekali,
tinggal Will nya di depan. Kayak gini:
Future Perfect Tense digunakan untuk menyatakan sesuatu yang “Sudah terjadi, tetapi
AKAN”. Akan sudah gitu loh. Kalau Anda buka lagi pelajaran bahasa Inggris tentang Future
Continuous Tense maka Future Perfect Tense ini pun akan sangat mudah difahami. Siapa
bilang “sudah” itu hanya dulu? Sudah bisa juga “akan”!. Future artinya Akan, Perfect artinya
sudah. Pusinglah jadinya tanpa contoh kasus kan?
Anda telepon saya dan bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 9 besok. Wah saya gak bisa terima
tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 9 itu saya akan sedang berenang. Jadwal saya renang itu
8:30 sampai 10:00. Jadi jam 9 besok itu sedang renang kan? kapan renangnya? besok!. Itulah
arti “sedang tetapi akan” ini. Sekarang Anda faham 100 persen kan? Dalam hal ini kita
gunakan Future Continuous Tense ya: “I will be swimming at 9 tomorrow, You may not meet
me at home”.
Nah sekarang perhatikan baik-baik!
Dari kejadian di atas, kalo jam 11 kan saya SUDAH AKAN SELESAI berenang kan? Nah,
kalo jam 11 besok saya sudah akan selesai berenang. Itulah yang saya maksud dengan
SUDAH AKAN ini, Future Perfect Tense: “I will have swum”.
Kok swum? ya, bentuk kata kerja swim dari yang ke-1 sampai ke-3 adalah: swim – swam –
swum. Bentuk ING nya swimming
Karena Future maka ada Will. Ada juga kata kerja bantu “Have” bentuk pertama karena
mengikuti Will. Karena Perfect maka pake Kata Kerja bentuk-3 dan saya tulis V3 (Verb 3).
Dari contoh Future Continuous Tense jadi Future Perfect Tense seperti ini:
Jadi Future Perfect Tense adalah tentang apa? Sudah Akan!. Bukan tentang Akan Sudah? Loh
kok mirip ya? memang, bisa juga dibilang begitu. Intinya kan Anda sudah tangkap kan?
Memang mirip dengan Future Continuous Tense juga (sedang akan terjadi pada suatu saat
di masa datang), hanya saja kalau dalam Future Perfect Continuous Tense ditekankan pada
masa terjadinya yang lebih panjang (sudah mulai, masih terjadi, akan berlanjut) tetapi bukan
sekarang melainkan di masa datang. Kalau itu sekarangnya maka namanya Present Perfect
Continuous Tense. Mirip kan? Bedanya memang hanya di Present dan Future nya itu. Ya,
beda waktunya. Yang satu sekarang (present) dan satu lagi nanti (Future).
Anda telepon saya dan bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 9 besok. Wah saya gak bisa terima
tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 9 itu saya akan sedang berenang. Jadwal saya renang itu
8:30 sampai 10:00. Jadi jam 9 besok itu sedang renang kan? kapan renangnya? besok!. Itulah
arti “sedang tetapi akan” ini. Sekarang Anda faham 100 persen kan? Dalam hal ini kita
gunakan Future Continuous Tensenya: “I will be swimming at 9 tomorrow, You may not
meet me at home”.
Dapat saya katakan bahwa jam 9 besok saya sudah akan sedang berenang selama 30 menit.
Masih akan terus kan? Yes, kan jadwalnya sampai jam 10:00.
Sudah, sedang, akan, di masa datang! Itulah inti dari Future Perfect Tense!.
Berikut ini contoh lagi untuk Future Perfect Continuous Tense, disederhanakan agar mudah
difahami rumusnya. Konteks dipakainya kan sudah saya jelaskan di bagian atas.
Kemarin teman saya datang ke rumah pagi-pagi jam 7. Terpaksa deh hanya
ngobrol sebentar di rumah, karena waktunya mepet banget, waktu itu “saya
akan pergi kerja”.
Positif: S + would + V1
Tanya: Would + S + V1
Nah, Past Future Continuous Tense ini mirip banget dengan Future
Continuous Tense biasa, hanya saja bentuknya Past. Jadi, agar mudah
dimengertinya jangan lupa Anda pelajari dulu sampai bisa Future Continuous
Tense, kemudian jadikan bentuk lampau. Tinggal tambah Past aja di depannya?
Seperti contoh yang saya berikan dalam Future Continuous Tense, kan ini
tentang peristiwa yang akan sedang berlangsung. Nah Past Future Continuous
Tense juga tentang hal itu, hanya saja akan sedang berlangsung itu DULU,
bukan kini, bukan pula nanti.
Kemarin , teman saya bilang mau ke rumah saya jam 9. Ingat, ini kemarin. Wah
waktu itu saya gak bisa terima tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas jam 9 itu saya
akan sedang berenang. Jadwal saya renang kemarin itu 8:30 sampai 10:00. Jadi
jam 9 kemarin akan sedang renang kan? kapan renangnya? kemarin!. Itulah arti
“sedang tetapi dulu” ini. Sekarang Anda faham 100 persen kan? Dalam hal ini
kita gunakan Past Future Continuous Tense ya: “I would be swimming at 9
yesterday, makanya tak bisa terima tamu tuh kemarin”.
Waktu tukang pos datang, dia akan sedang mandi. Untunglah, jadi surat tersebut
bisa diterimanya, kalau tidak maka surat itu dikembalikan ke alamat pengirim
deh.
Contoh lain:
Kemarin , teman saya telepon dan katanya mau ke rumah saya jam 9. Ingat, ini
kemarin. Wah waktu itu saya gak bisa terima tamu tuh jam segitu, karena pas
jam 9 itu saya akan sedang berenang. Jadwal saya renang kemarin itu 8:30
sampai 10:00. Tetapi kalau jam 11 boleh. Karena jam 11 itu saya AKAN
SUDAH berenang. Kapan akan sudah itu? kemarin, Past. Dalam situasi ini kita
gunakan Past Future Perfect Tense: “I would have swum at 11 yesterday”.
Contoh Kalimat:
Ingat, kata kerja bentuk-3 dari swim adalah swum (Swim – Swam – Swum).
Biasanya Tense ini, Past Future Perfect Tense ini, sering digunakan untuk
berandai-andai. Dulu guru SMA saya bilang ini digunakan untuk menyatakan
peristiwa atau kejadian yang “akan telah terjadi pada masa lampau jika
syaratnya terpenuhi”. Contohnya:
-He would have passed the examination If She had learned hard
Mestinya Dia sudah akan lulus jika saja dia telah belajar giat
Masih ingat Future Perfect Continuous Tense kan? Tense yang digunakan
untuk menyatakan peristiwa yang: akan, telah dan masih berlangung di masa
datang. Maka…
Past Future Perfect Continuous Tense adalah untuk menyatakan hal diatas juga,
tetapi dimasa yang lalu, masa lampau. Past Future Perfect Continuous Tense
mengenai peristiwa atau hal yang akan telah sedang terjadi di masa lampau.
Rumus Past Future Perfect Continuous Tense
Contoh:
Kisahnya begini :
Waktu Anda telepon saya jam 9 pagi kemarin itu, saya telah berenang selama
30 menit loh, dan masih terus berenang lagi beberapa waktu setelah itu.
“I would have been swimming for 30 minutes When You called me yesterday.”
Jam segini nih kemarin itu, saya telah menunggu Anda 2 jam lebih.
“At this time yesterday, I would have been wating for you for more than two
hours”.
Contoh lain:
-In May 2007, I would have been living in Tanggulangin for 3 years
Kisahnya begini:
Saya sedang cerita tentang Lumpur Panas Lapindo. Ketika pertama kali lumpur
itu menyembur, saya akan sudah tinggal di dekat situ (Tanggulangin) selama 3
tahun, tapi belum sampai 3 tahun ya, hampir akan 3 tahun, menjelang 3 tahun.
Kemudian saya masih terus tinggal disitu sampai akhir November 2007. Sudah
masih akan kan? Tapi dulu.
Contoh lainnya:
-When she decided to get married, “She would have been working there for 1
year”.
Ketika dia memutuskan menikah pada waktu dulu itu, dia sudah bekerja di sana
menjelang setahun.
Coba rasakan dengan feeling Anda tentang Past Future Perfect Continuous
Tense.
-Would You have been living in Tanggulangin for 3 years at that time?
