Active and Passive Voice (Vice Versa)

Active Voice-কে Passive Voice এ পরিণত করার সাধারণ নিয়মাবলীঃ

  • বাক্যের অর্থ অনুযায়ী রূপ নির্ধারণ করতে হবে। অর্থাৎ বাকাটি Assertive, Interrogative, Imperative, Affirmative না Negative তা নির্ণয় করতে হবে।।
  • মূল ক্রিয়াকে কী বা কাকে বা কাদেরকে দ্বার প্রশ্ন করে object বা কর্ম নির্ধারণ করতে হবে।
  • বাক্যে দুই রকম object থাকতে পারে। অর্থাৎ মূল ক্রিয়াকে কী দ্বারা প্রশ্ন করলে যে উত্তর পাওয়া যাবে তা Direct Object (মুখ্য কর্ম) এবং কাকে দ্বারা প্রশ্ন করলে যে উত্তর পাওয়া যাবে তা Indirect Object (গৌণ কর্ম)।
  • একই বাক্যে দুটি object থাকলে অধিকাংশ ক্ষেত্রেই Indirect Object-কেই Passive form-এ subject হিসেবে নিতে হয়। তবে কোনো কোনো ক্ষেত্রে Indirect Object এর পূর্বে Preposition থাকলে Direct Object-কে Passive Voice- এ subject হিসেবে নিতে হবে।
  • Tense অনুযায়ী Passive Auxiliary নিতে হবে।
  • মূল ক্রিয়ার Past Participle form হবে এবং সংশ্লিষ্ট Preposition Group Verb হিসেবে ব্যবহৃত হলে তা সাথেই বসবে।
  • Active Voice এর subject, Passive Voice এ object- এ পরিণত করে তার পূর্বে by বসাতে হবে এবং Passive Voice- এর object, Active Voice-a subject-এ পরিণত হবে।
