Passive Voice

Passive voice adalah konstruksi gramatikal dimana subyek dari kalimat atau klausa
menunjukkan penerima tindakan, bukan pelaku. Dalam bahasa Inggris, kalimat pasif dibentuk dengan
kata kerja bantu 'be' + 'past participle' dari kata kerja transitif

Active voice lebih sering digunakan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari dibandingkan dengan passive
voice. Namun demikian, sering kita temukan passive voice di surat-surat kabar, artikel-artikel di
majalah-majalah. Passive voice digunakan karena obyek dari active voicemerupakan informasi yang
lebih penting dibandingkan dengan subject-nya.

Juga kadang passive voice digunakan ketika si pembicara/penulis lebih menekankan pada action.
Apa/siapa si pelaku tidak dipentingkan

Passive voice mengikuti pola :

Subject + be + V3 + by + Object

Perhatikan contoh berikut:

Active : He writes a letter

Passive : A letter is written by him

 Object dari active voice (a letter) berubah menjadi subject dari passive voice.
 Subject dari active voice (he) berubah menjadi object dari passive voice.
 Terjadi perubahan dari subject pronoun 'he' pada active voice menjadi object pronoun 'him'
pada passive voice.
 Verb1 (writes) pada active voice menjadi verb3 (written) pada passive voice
 Pada passive voice ditambahkan be 'is' di depan verb3. Be yang digunakan tergantung pada
subject passive voice dan tenses yang digunakan.
 Pada passive voice ditambahkan kata 'by' dibelakang verb3. Namun, jika object dari passive
voice dianggap tidak penting atau tidak diketahui, maka object biasanya tidak dikemukakan dan
begitu pula kata 'by'
Beberapa penggunaan dan contoh perubahan kalimat aktif menjadi pasif adalah sebagai berikut.
1. digunakan ketika pelaku aksi tidak diketahui

Active Voice

 Someone knocked on your door last night.

 Somebody has used the computer without permission
Passive Voice
 Your door was knocked on last night.
 The computer has been used without permission.
2. digunakan ketika pelaku aksi tidak penting untuk disebutkan (misalnya karena pelaku aksi
tersebut sudah jelas / bisa ditebak atau merujuk kepada orang secara umum)
Active Voice

 You can view the results on the web.

 The teacher instructed the students to solve the math problem.
Passive Voice
 The final results can be viewed on the web.
 The students were instructed to solve the math problem.
3. digunakan untuk memberi penekanan pada object
Active Voice

 I have to collect more than 20,000 dollars to buy the car.

Passive Voice
 More than 20,000 dollars have to be collected to buy the car. (bentuk pasif dari infinitive)
4. digunakan sebagai variasi pada tulisan (misalnya pelaku aksi telah disebutkan pada kalimat
sebelumnya)
Active Voice

 KPK investigators knew that Neneng Sri Wahyuni returned to Indonesia. They arrested the
woman on June 13.
Passive Voice
 KPK investigators knew that Neneng Sri Wahyuni returned to Indonesia. The woman was
arrested on June 13.
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, dllakan 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.

PASSIVE VOICE WITH TENSES

Rumus dan Contoh Passive Voice pada Tenses

Auxiliary verb untuk membentuk konstruksi pasif pada tenses dapat berupa primary auxiliary “be”
(is, are, was, were), kombinasi antara dua primary auxiliary (is/are being, was/were being,
has/have been), atau antara primary auxiliary dengan modal verb (will be, will have been).

Auxialiary tersebut kemudian dipadukan dengan past participle untuk membentuk passive verb
form.

1. PRESENT
2. PAST

3. FUTURE
4. WITH MODALS

Catatan:
Bentuk pasif dari perfect continuous sebaiknya dihindari karena rumit dan tidak elegan.
Passive Voice pada Infinitive
Bentuk pasif dari infinitive phrase dapat berperan sebagai subject, object, maupun modifier pada
suatu kalimat. Rumus dan contoh bentuk pasif pada infinitive adalah sebagai berikut.

(to) be + past participle

Contoh:
Subject To be accompanied with him is a bad idea. (Ditemani olehnya merupakan ide yang buruk.)
Object Everyone needs to be loved. (Setiap orang butuh dicintai.)
Modifier He is the man to be trusted for all the things. (Dia laki-laki yang dapat dipercaya untuk
semua hal.)

Passive Voice pada Gerund

Bentuk pasif pada gerund dapat berfungsi sebagai subject, object, maupun object of preposition

Pengertian Conditional Sentence

Conditional sentence adalah complex sentence (kalimat majemuk) yang dibentuk dari subordinate
clause yang diawali dengan subordinate conjunction if berupa condition(syarat) dan main
clause berupa result/consequence (hasil).

Ada 4 tipe conditional sentence yang biasa digunakan, yaitu: tipe 1, tipe 2, tipe 3, dan tipe 0.

Condition pada conditional sentence tipe 1 mungkin dipenuhi, tipe 2 tidak atau hampir tidak
mungkin dipenuhi, tipe 3 tidak mungkin dipenuhi (unreal), sedangkan tipe 0 selalu
terwujud karena merupakan scientific fact/kebenaran ilmiah

Rumus Conditional Sentence

Secara umum, rumus kalimat pengandaian ini adalah sebagai berikut.

if + condition, result/consequence

atau tanpa tanda baca koma:
