CARA MENGUBAH KALIMAT INTERROGATIVE DAN NEGATIF KE KALIMAT PASIF

Mengubah kalimat negatif ke kalimat pasif

Jika ingin mengubah kalimat negatif ke kalimat pasif, “not” diletakkan di antara “is/am/are/was/were” dan “being”.

Contoh:

Kalimat aktif: She is not writing a story.

menjadi

Kalimat Pasif: A story is not being written by her.

Mengubah kalimat pertanyaan (interrogative) ke kalimat pasif

Bentuk pasif kalimat pertanyaan dimulai dengan be (is/am/are). Jika kalimat aktif dimulai dengan kata tanya seperti when, whose, why, which, dan how, maka kalimat pasif juga dimulai dengan kata tanya. Jika kalimat aktif dimulai dengan kata tanya “who” atau “whose”, maka kalimat pasif dimulai dengan by whom atau by whose. Jika kalimat aktif dimulai dengan whom, kalimat pasif dimulai dengan who.

Contoh:

Kalimat aktif: Are the masons building a house?

menjadi

Kalimat Pasif: Is a house being built by the masons?
