Grammar
Bentuk kalimat aktif dan pasif mungkin sudah tidak asing dalam telinga kita. Tak hanya dalam Bahasa Indonesia, dalam Bahasa Inggris pun juga dikenal kedua jenis kalimat ini. Pada artikel kali ini, kita akan membahas mengenai kalimat pasif alias passive voice mulai dari definisi sampai juga contoh kalimatnya.
Definisi Passive Voice
Dilansir dari The Writing Center, passive voice merupakan “a passive construction occurs when you make the object of an action into the subject of a sentence. That is, whoever or whatever is performing the action is not the grammatical subject of the sentence.” Dari definisi di atas dapat disimpulkan bahwa passive voice subjek kalimat tidak melakukan aksi melainkan menerima aksi. Misalnya dalam Bahasa Indonesia, kata kerja menjadi berawal di-, seperti: disapu, disetir, dimakan, dan sebagainya. Hal ini juga berlaku dalam Bahasa Inggris sehigga kata kerja biasanya akan ditambahkan akhiran -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, atau -ne. Contohnya:
Some flowers are planted by my parents.
My phone was stolen.
