Teori Active dan Pasive Voice

Active sentence (active voice) is a sentence where the subject of his work, by contrast, passive sentence (passive voice) is a sentence where the subject was subjected to the job by the object of the sentence. Active voice is more often used in daily life compared with the passive voice. However, often we find the passive voice in the newspapers, articles in magazines and scholarly writings. Passive voice is used because the object of the active voice is more important information than his subject.
Example :
Active   : Andine water this plant every two days. 
Passive  : This plant is watered by her every two days.
From this example we can see that:
1.   Object of the active voice (this plant) becomes the subject of the passive voice. 
2.  Subject of the active voice (Andine) became the object of the passive voice. Note also that there is a charge of subject pronoun ‘Andine’ became the object pronoun ‘her’ 
3.  Verb1 (water) the active voice becomes verb3 (watered) on the passive voice. 
4.He added some 'is' in front verb3. Be used is dependent on the subject of passive voice andtenses used. (Note the passive voice patterns below). 
5. He added the word 'by' behind verb3. However, if the object of the passive voice is considered not important or unknown, then the object is usually not mentioned and so was the word 'by'. 
6.  Especially for progressive sentences (present, past, past perfect, future, past future, and pastperfectcontinuous future, need to add a 'being' in front verb3). If you did not add "being",tensisnya will change, not a progressive / continuous again. Consider the examples in point h - obelow.

Based on the six points above the passive voice followed the pattern as follows:

Subject + be + Verb+ by + Object + modifier 

A. If the active voice in simple present tense, then ‘be’ it is the passive voice is, am or acres. The pattern of active and passive voice ineach tense.
Example:
  • Active    : He meets them everyday.
  • Passive   : They are met by him everyday.
  • Active    : She waters this plant every two days. 
  • Passive   : This plant is watered by her every two days.
B. If the active voice in the simple past tense, then 'be' passive voice it is was or were the resource persons.
Example:
  • Active    : He met them yesterday
  • Passive  : They were met by him yesterday
  • Active    : She watered this plant this morning
  • Passive  : This plant was watered by her this morning 
C. If the active voice in present perfect tense, the 'be' passive voice it is been placed after theauxiliary has or have, so that a 'has been' or 'have been'.
Example:
  • Active    : He has met them
  •  Passive  : They have been met by him
  • Active    : She has watered this plant for 5 minutes.
  • Passive  : This plant has been watered by her for 5 minutes.

D. If the active voice in the past perfect tence, the ‘be’ passive voice it is been placed after the auxiliary Had, so be Had been.
Example:
 
  • Active    : He had met them before I came.
  •  Passive  : They had been met by him before I came.
  • Active    : She had watered this plant for 5 minutes when I got here
  • Passive  : This plant had been watered by her for 5 minutes when I got here

E. If the active voice in the simple future tense, then 'be' passive voice is to be his

·         Active   : She will have watered this plant before I get here this afternoon.
·         Passive  : This plant will have been watered by her before I get here this afternoon.

G. If the active in the past future perfect tense, the ‘be’ passive voice it is been placed after the auxiliary Would have, that it becomes ‘Would have been’
Example:
·         Active    : He would have met them.
·         Passive  : They would have been met by him.
·         Active    : She would have watered this plant.
·         Passive  : This plant would have been watered by her.

Transitive and intransitive verb.

What is the difference between the two verbs in the above sentences? At first thought, you may say the definition but forget about the meaning. Instead, concentrate on the grammar. How do the verbs differ grammatically?
Notice that the first sentence has two words following the verb hit. The second sentence doesn’t have words after the verb sang. These two facts lead us to a discussion on transitive and intransitive verbs.

What are transitive verbs?

Transitive verbs are action verbs that have an object to receive that action. In the first sentence above, the direct object ball received the action of the verb hit.

Here are some more examples of transitive verbs:
I baked some cookies.
I rode the bicycle.
I moved the chair.
I stitched a quilt.

All of the verbs in the above sentences are transitive because an object is receiving the action of the verb. But what about the sentence “The bird sang.” Is the verb in that sentence a transitive verb? No, in this case the verb sang is an intransitive verb.

What are intransitive verbs?

Intransitive verbs are action verbs but unlike transitive verbs, they do not have an object receiving the action. Notice there are no words after the verb sang.


More examples of intransitive verbs:
I laughed.
I cried.
The book fell.
The horse galloped.
The sun set.
In all of the above cases the subject is performing the action of the verb and nothing is receiving the action.

What about this sentence?

I walked to the park today.
Is walked transitive or intransitive? Think about the rules. Since walked has words coming after it, the verb must be transitive, right? WRONG! The phrase to the park is a prepositional phrase and today is an adverb. There is no object receiving the action of the verb walked so the verb is intransitive.
