Voice ( Active and Passive)

Rule to change Active to Passive voice : Tenses

Active Voice and Passive Voice

Active Voice: Active voice के वाक्यों में subject (कर्ता) प्रधान होता है | जैसे -

1. वह फल खाता है |

He eats a fruit.

2. मैं दिल्ली शहर में रहता हूँ |

I live in Delhi city.

3. मेरे सभी दोस्त क्रिकेट खेलते हैं |

My all friends play cricket.

4. क्या आपने उसे पिटा ?

Did you beat him?

5. वे लोग कहाँ जायेंगे ?

Where will they go?

6. हमलोग अध्ययन कर चुके हैं |

We have studied.

7. अभय अपनी कार चला रहा था |

Abhay was driving his car.

Passive Voice: इसके वाक्यों में कर्म (object) प्रधान होता है |

उदाहरण:

1. उसके द्वारा फल खाया जाता है |

A fruit is eaten by him.

2. मेरे द्वारा दिल्ली शहर में रहा जाता है |

There is lived in Delhi city by me.

3. मेरे सभी दोस्तों के द्वारा क्रिकेट खेला जाता है |

Cricket is played by my all friends.

4. क्या आपके द्वारा उसे पिटा गया |

Was he beaten by you?

5. उनलोगों के द्वारा कहाँ जाया जायेगा ?

Where will be gone by them?

6. हमलोगों के द्वारा अध्ययन किया जा चूका है |

Study has been done by us.

7. अभय के द्वारा अपनी कार चलाया जा रहा था |

His car was being driven by Abhay.

समान्यत: हम जितने भी प्रकार के Tense या कोई अन्य प्रकार के वाक्य बनाते है या सीखते है सभी Active Voice में ही होते है | passive voice वाक्य में मुख्य फोकस action पर होता है |

English Grammar में निम्नलिखित प्रकार के वाक्यों का Passive voice बनाया जाता है |

(i) Tense के वाक्य

(ii) Modals के प्रयोग वाले वाक्य

(iii) Impretive sentences के वाक्य

1. Tense

सबसे पहले हम किसी भी tense के Active और Passive voice के बनावट को देखते हैं |

ACTIVE VOICE and PASSIVE VOICE:

Present Indefinite Tense:

Asserative Sentence:

A.V: Subject + Verb¹ + object + other words.

Ex: He shows his performance to people.

P.V: Subject (object) + is/am/are + Verb³ + by object (subject) + other words.

Ex: His performance is shown by him to people.

नोट: यहाँ हमने subject और object के स्थान परिवर्तन एवं रूप परिवर्तन को समझने के लिए दो रंगों का प्रयोग किया है | Active voice में subject लाल रंग में है और object हरा रंग में है जबकि passive voice में subject हरा रंग में और object लाल रंग में है | इसका अर्थ ये है कि active voice के object को passive voice में subject बना दिया जाता है और active voice के subject को passive voice में object बना दिया जाता है |

subject ----------------> object

He का object him हो जाता है |

यहाँ कुछ इसी प्रकार के subject और उसके object की सूची दी गई है इसे अच्छी तरह याद कर ले |

Subjects	Objects
I	me
We	us
You	You
He	him
She	her
It	it
They	Them
One (कोई)	One
No one	No one

एक अन्य उदाहरण देखें |

A.V : She abuses me.

P.V : I am abused by her.

इस उदाहरण में object (me) को जब subject बनाया गया तो यह (I) बन गया और subject (She) को जब object बनाया गया तो यह (her) बन गया |

एक अन्य और उदाहरण देखें |

A.V : They love us.

P.V : We are loved by them.

अब आप समझ गए होंगे कि subject से object कैसे बनाना है और object को subject कैसे बनाना है इस table की मदद से | यदि कोई noun (संज्ञा) subject या object की जगह हो तो वो नहीं बदलता है वह वैसा ही रहता है |

जैसे -

A.V : Deepak sells books. '

P.V : Books are sold by Deepak.

नोट: यह नियम सभी प्रकार के वाक्यों में लागु होता है |
