PASSIVE VOICE : Pengertian, Rumus, Penggunaan, Contoh Kalimat, Contoh Soal dan Penjelasanya

Passive Voice

Pengertian Passive Voice

Passive voice adalah suatu bentuk kalimat dimana subjek kalimat menerima aksi, bukan melakukan aksi. Tidak seperti active voice yang fokus terhadap pihak yang melakukan aksi (doer of action), bentuk ini lebih berfokus kepada pihak atau objek yang menerima hasil dari suatu aksi tersebut (receiver of action).

Passive voice adalah suatu bentuk kalimat dimana subjek kalimat menerima aksi, bukan melakukan aksi. Tidak seperti active voice yang fokus terhadap pihak yang melakukan aksi (doer of action), bentuk ini lebih berfokus kepada pihak atau objek yang menerima hasil dari suatu aksi tersebut (receiver of action).

Active	My parents plant some flowers (Pelaku aksi)
Passive	Some flowers are planted by my parents (Penerima aksi)

Umumnya, kalimat aktif yang bisa ditransformasi menjadi kalimat pasif berbentuk kalimat aktif yang mengandung transitive verbs (kata kerja yang memerlukan objek langsung) seperti make, bring, buy, write dan sebagainya. Sebaliknya, kalimat pasif yang mengandung intransitive verbs (kata kerja yang tidak memerlukan objek langsung) seperti cry, swim, go, arrive, dan die tidak bisa diubah menjadi kalimat pasif.

Namun, apabila intransitive verbs tersebut diikuti oleh preposition, ada kemungkinan kalimat tersebut bisa diubah menjadi kalimat pasif tetapi kalimat pasif yang terbentuk akan sangat kaku.

Rumus Passive Voice

Untuk membentuk kalimat pasif, rumus sederhana berikut biasanya digunakan tetapi tetap harus disesuaikan dengan tense kalimat.

Subject + to be (am/is/are) + past participle (pp)
Tense	Rumus Passive Voice	Contoh Passive Voice
Simple Present	am/is/are + pp	is created
Present Continuous	am/is/are being + pp	is being created
Simple Past	was/were + pp	was created
Past Continuous	was/were being + pp	was being created
Present Perfect	has/have been + pp	has been created
Past Perfect	had been + pp	had been created
Simple Future	will be + pp	will be created
Future Continuous	am/is/are going to be + pp	is going to be created
Future Perfect	will have been + pp	will have been created

Penggunaan kalimat pasif dengan perfect continuous tenses biasanya jarang dilakukan karena menghasilkan struktur kalimat yang terlalu rumit dan sulit dipahami. Oleh karena itu, hal ini sebaiknya dihindari meskipun secara tata bahasa benar (grammatically correct).BARU! Forum StudioBelajar.com!

Penggunaan & Contoh Passive Voice

Kalimat pasif umumnya digunakan dalam kondisi sebagai berikut:

a) Ketika pelaku aksi (doer of action) tidak diketahui	My money has been stolen. Dalam contoh passive voice ini, pembicara tidak mengetahui siapa yang mencuri dompetnya.
b) Ketika pelaku aksi (doer of action) sudah jelas dan tidak perlu disebutkan	Wheat is grown in Karawang. Dalam contoh ini, sudah sangat jelas bahwa petani adalah pelaku aksi atau orang yang menanam gandum.
c) Ketika tidak ingin memberitahukan siapa pelaku aksi (doer of action)	Mistakes were made. Dalam contoh ini, pembicara tidak mau memberitahu siapa yang melakukan kesalahan.
d) Ketika pelaku aksi (doer of action) adalah semua orang (people in general)	Transjakarta is used as an alternative means of transportation to avoid traffic jam. Dalam contoh ini, pelaku aksi adalah semua orang karena transjakarta dapat digunakan oleh masyarakat luas.
e) Ketika pelaku aksi telah disebutkan pada kalimat sebelumnya (apabila terdapat di suatu paragraf)	Mr. Han caught Ari cheating on the test. Ari was given punishment immediately. Dalam contoh passive voice ini, Mr. Han sebagai pelaku aksi sudah disebutkan sebelumnya sehingga tidak perlu ditambahkan pada kalimat kedua.

Pelaku Aksi dalam Passive Voice

Dalam beberapa kondisi penggunaan passive voice, by-phrase (frasa yang menyatakan pelaku aksi) tidak digunakan karena beberapa alasan sebagaimana tertulis di atas. Namun, sebenarnya kita dapat memasukkan pelaku aksi jika informasi tersebut sangat penting atau dalam kondisi sebagai berikut :

a) Ketika terdapat informasi baru (kalimat kedua).	Bottled water comes from mountain water. It is produced by water company.
b) Ketika mengetahui nama jelas pelaku aksi atau pelaku aksi adalah orang terkenal.	Siti Nurbaya was written by Marah Roesli.
c) Ketika identitas pelaku aksi sangat mengejutkan atau tidak dikira-kira.	It is hard to believe that this beautiful jazz melody was composed by an eight-year-old.

Passive Voice dengan Get

Kata get dapat juga digunakan pada kalimat pasif untuk menggantikan to be (am/is/are). Biasanya kalimat pasif dengan kata get digunakan pada percakapan informal. Sama seperti ketika menggunakan to be (am/is/are), bentuk get yang digunakan juga harus disesuaikan dengan tense kalimat.

Subject + to be + past participle (pp)
Tense	Rumus Passive Voice	Contoh Passive Voice
Simple Present	get/gets + pp	get treated
Present Continuous	am/is/are getting + pp	is getting treated
Simple Past	got + pp	got treated
Past Continuous	was/were getting + pp	was getting treated
Present Perfect	has/have gotten + pp	has gotten treated
Past Perfect	had gotten + pp	had gotten treated
Simple Future	will get + pp	will get treated
Future Continuous	am/is/are going to get + pp	is going to get treated
Future Perfect	will have gotten + pp	will have gotten treated

Demikianlah penjelasan ringkas mengenai passive voice dalam bahasa Inggris. Perlu diingat bahwa kalimat pasif dianggap lebih formal daripada kalimat aktif. Oleh karena itu, kalimat pasif umumnya digunakan dalam penulisan seperti penulisan ilmiah, laporan teknis, dan artikel koran dan jarang digunakan pada percakapan sehari-hari.

Long time ago in the island of Java, Indonesia, lived a couple of farmer. They had married for some years but they had no children. So they prayed to a monster called Buta Ijo to give them children. Buta Ijo was a ferocious and powerful monster. He granted their wish on one condition. When their children had grown up, they had to sacrifice them to Buta Ijo. He liked eating fresh meat of human being. The farmers agreed to his condition. Several months later the wife was pregnant.

She gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. They named her Timun Emas. The farmers were happy. Timun Emas was very healthy and a very smart girl. She was also very diligent. When she was a teenager Buta Ijo came to their house. Timun Emas was frightened so she ran away to hide. The farmers then told Buta Ijo that Timun Emas was still a child. They asked him to postpone. Buta Ijo agreed. He promised to come again. The following year Buta Ijo came again. But again and again their parents said that Timun Emas was still a child.

 When the third time Buta Ijo came their parents had prepared something for him. They gave Timun Emas several bamboo needles, seeds of cucumber, dressing and salt.

‘Timun, take these things’

‘What are these things?’

‘These are your weapons. Buta Ijo will chase you. He will eat you alive. So run as fast as you can. And if he will catch you spread this to the ground. Now go!’

Timun Emas was scared so she ran as quickly as she could. When Buta Ijo arrived she was far from home. He was very angry when he realized that his prey had left. So he ran to chase her. He had a sharp nose so he knew what direction his prey ran.

Timun Emas was just a girl while Buta Ijo was a monster so he could easily catch her up. When he was just several steps behind Timun Emas quickly spread the seeds of cucumber. In seconds they turned into many vines of cucumber. The exhausted Buta Ijo was very thirsty so he grabbed and ate them. When Buta Ijo was busy eating cucumber Timun Emas could run away.

But soon Buta Ijo realized and started running again. When he was just several steps behind Timun Emas threw her bamboo needles. Soon they turned into dense bamboo trees. Buta Ijo found it hard to pass. It took him some time to break the dense bamboo forest. Meanwhile Timun Emas could run farther.

Buta Ijo chased her again. When he almost catch her again and again Timun Emas threw her dressing. This time it turned into a lake. Buta Ijo was busy to save himself so Timun Emas ran way. But Buta Ijo could overcome it and continued chasing her.

Finally when Timun Emas was almost caught she threw her salt. Soon the land where Buta Ijo stood turned into ocean. Buta Ijo was drowned and died instantly. Timun Emas was thankful to god and came back to her home.

TIMUN MAS

Orientation	Long long time ago, there was a farmer couple. They were staying in a village near a forest. They lived happily.
Complication 1	Unfortunately, they hadn’t had any children yet.
Resolution 1	Every day they prayed to God for a child. One day a giant passed their home. He heard what they were praying. Then the giant gave them a cucumber seed. “Plant this seed, then you’ll get a daughter,” said the giant. “Thank you, Giant,” said the couple. “But in one condition, in her 17-th birthday, you must give her to me,” said the Giant. The couple wanted a child so much that they agreed without thinking first. Then the couple planted the cucumber seed. Each day they took care the growing plant so carefully. Months later, a golden cucumber grew from the plant. The cucumber was getting heavier and bigger each day. When it was ripe, they picked it. Carefully they cut out the cucumber and how surprised were they when they found a beautiful baby inside. They were so happy. They named the baby Timun Mas, or Golden Cucumber.
Complication 2	Years were passing by and Timun Mas had grown into a beautiful girl. Her parents were very proud of her. But their happiness turned to fear when her 17th birthday came. The giant returned to ask for their promise. He was going to take Timun Mas away.
Resolution 2	The farmer tried to be calm. “Just a moment, please. Timun Mas is playing. My wife will call her,” he said. Then the farmer came to his daughter. “My child, take this,” as he was giving her a little bag to Timun Mas. “This will help you from the giant. Now, run as fast as you can,” he ordered. So Timun Mas ran away.
Complication 3	The couple was very sad about her leaving. But they didn’t want the giant to eat Timun Mas. Meanwhile, the giant had been waiting for too long. He became impatient. Somehow he knew that the couple had lied to him. So he destroyed their house and ran for Timun Mas. The giant was chasing Timun Mas and he was getting closer and closer. Timun Mas then took a handful of salt from her little bag. She spread out the salt behind her. Suddenly a wide sea appeared between them. The giant had to swim to reach her
Resolution 3	Timun Mas was still running, but now the giant almost caught her. Then she took some chilly and threw them to the giant. The chilly suddenly grew into some trees and trapped the giant. The trees grew some thorns as sharp as a knife. The giant screamed painfully. At the mean time, Timun Mas could escape again.
Complication 4	But the giant was very strong. Again he almost caught Timun Mas. So Timun Mas took the third magic stuff, the cucumber seeds. She threw the seeds and suddenly they became a wide cucumber field. The giant was very tired and hungry so he ate those fresh cucumbers. He ate too much that he felt sleepy and fell asleep soon.
Resolution  4	Timun Mas kept on running as fast as she could. But soon she was very tired herself. To make things worse, the giant had woken up! Timun Mas was so scared. Desperately she then threw her last weapon, terasi (a kind of shrimp pasta). IT did a miracle again. The pasta became a big swamp. The giant fell into it but his hands almost reached Timun Mas. Suddenly the lake pulled him to the bottom. The giant panicked and he couldn’t breathe. At last he was drown.
Re-orientation	Timun Mas was very relieved. She was safe now. Then she returned to her parents’ house. Her parents were of course very happy to see their daughter safe and sound. “Thanks God. You have saved my daughter,” they cried happily. From then on, Timun Mas lived happily with her parents with no fear anymore.

A long time ago, very few people lived in the New Territories. There were only a few villages. If the people wanted to go from one village to another, they often had to pass through wild and unsafe forest.

Pada jaman dahuu, sangat sedikit orang yang tinggal dalam suatu wilayah baru. Hanya ada beberapa desa. Jika orang ingin pergi dari satu desa ke desa yang lain, mereka seringkali harus melewati hutan yang buas dan tidak aman.

One day, a farmer’s young wife went to the next village to visit her own mother and brother. She brought along her baby son. When it was time for her to leave, her brother said “ it is getting dark. Let my son, Ah Tim go with you though the forest.”

Suatu hari, seorang istri petani yang masih muda ingin mengunjungi desa tetangga untuk menemui ibu dan saudara laki lakinya. Dia memabawa anak laki – lakinya. Ketika sudah waktunya untuk pulang, kakanya mengatakan kepadanya “ Hari sudah mulai gelap. Biarlah anak laki lakiku, AH Tim menemanimu melewati hutan.”

So Ah Tim led the way and the young woman followed behind, carrying her baby. When they were in the forest, suddenly they saw a group of wolves. They began to run to avoid the danger, but Ah Tim kicked against a stone and fell down. At once the wolves caught him. The young woman cried to the wolves, “ please eat my own son instead.” Then, she put her baby son on the ground in front of the wolves and took her nephew away.

Sehingga Ah Tim memimpin dan wanita muda tersebut mengikutinya dibelakang, sambil membawa anaknya. Ketika mereka di hutan, tiba tiba mereka melihat segerombolan serigala. Mereka mulai berlari menghindari bahaya tersebut, akan tetapi Ah Tim tersandung batu dan terjatuh. Dengan segera serigala tersebut menangkapnya. Wanita muda tersebut menangis pada si Serigala, “ mohon makan saja anak ku,” kemudian dia meletakkan bayinya di tanah depan serigala dan mengambil keponakannya.

Everyone understood that this was because the woman was very good and kind. She had offered her own son’s life to save her nephew.

Semua orang mengetahui bahwa hal ini karena perempuan tersebut sangat baik dan ramah. Dia menawarkan anaknya sendiri untuk menyelamatkan keponakannya.

They ran back to the house and called for help. All men in the village fetched thick sticks and went back with her into the forest. When they got there, they saw something very strange. Instead of eating the woman’s baby the wolves were playing with him.

Mereka kembali ke desa dan meminta bantuan. Semua laki laki di desa mengambil tongkat dan pergi ke hutan. Ketika mereka sampai di sana, mereka melihat sesuatu yang aneh. Si serigala tidak memakan anak dari perempuan tersebut akan tetapi malah bermain dengannya.
