Active and Passive Voice

Simple Past Tense

By

Lista Litta
Cara pembentukan kalimat aktif (active voice) menjadi
kalimat pasif (passive voice):

• Kalimat aktif yang dirubah harus memiliki objek. Jadi dalam hal ini
kata kerja yang digunakan harus kata kerja transitif (kata kerja yang
memiliki objek).

• Subjek kalimat aktif diubah menjadi objek kalimat pasif. Sebaliknya,

objek kalimat aktif diubah menjadi subjek kalimat pasif.

• Kata kerja dalam kalimat pasif harus berbentuk Past Participle (V3)
apapun jenis tenses dari kalmat aktifnya. Kemudian V3 didahului
oleh to be (is, am, are, was, were, being, been) yang diikuti oleh “by
(oleh)”. Dimana to be disesuaikan dengan tenses dari kalimat aktif.

• Susunan kalimat disesuaikan dengan tenses.

 Simple Past Tense

ACTIVE VOICE S + Past Tense (V2) + Object + …..

S (object of AV) + was/ were + Past Participle (V3)+ by +

PASSIVE VOICE object (Subject of AV) +……

AV : Clara ate sardines and rice this noon.

(Clara makan sarden dan nasi tadi siang.)
EXAMPLE 1:

PV : Sardines and rice were eaten by Clara this

noon.
(Sarden dan nasi dimakan oleh Clara tadi siang.)

To be dari Simple Past Tense adalah “was / were” (pemakaian to be sesuaikan

dengan subject).
 AV : Claudia helped Laura last sunday.
(Claudia menolong Laura minggu lalu.)
EXAMPLE 2:

PV : Laura was helped by Claudia last sunday.

(Laura ditolong oleh Claudia minggu lalu)
