HOW TO USE ACTIVE
SENTENCE AND PASSIVE SENTENCE PRESENT FORM
In the active voice, do something is
the subject of the sentence and anything that receives the action is the
object. Most of the sentences in the English language is an active sentence. Subject/something action] + [Verb/kata kerja] +
[Object/ Something to receive act]
- Example : The teacher(Subject) teachs(Verb) the students(Object)
In the passive voice, something that receives the
action is the subject of the sentence and something to take action (optional,
can be written or not) written near the end of a sentence. We can use the
passive voice if we think that something that receives the action is more
important or should be emphasized to the listener. we can also use the passive
voice if we don't know who is doing the action or if we don't to mention
who is doing the action. [Something
receiving action] + [be] + [past participle (verb 3) of the verb] + [by] +
[something actions]
- Example : The students(Subject) are(be) taught(verb3) by the teacher.
