Active Pasive

Active sentence (active voice) is a sentence where the subject of his work, by contrast, the passive sentence (passive voice) is the subject of his sentence where the subject of work by the object of the sentence. Active voice is more frequently 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:

An Active *: We fertilize the soil Every six months
* Passive: The soil is fertilized by us Every six months

From this example we can see that:

1. Object of the active voice (the soil) becomes the subject of the passive voice
2. Subject of the active voice (We) of the passive voice to object. Notice also that there is a change of subject pronoun 'We' became the object pronoun 'us'.
3. Verb1 (fertilize) the active voice becomes verb3 (fertilized) on the passive voice.
4. He added some 'is' in front verb3. Be used is dependent on the subject passive voice and tenses used. (Note the passive voice patterns below).
5. Adding 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 past perfect continuous future, need to add the 'beings' in front verb3). If not added "being", tensisnya will change, not a progressive / continuous again. Consider the examples in point h - o below.

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

Subject + be + Verb3 + by + object + modifier
